I have been following up with IDBI bank on the same issue for past few
weeks (they move slower than frozen molasses going uphill).  They were
told about Hall of Shame and their entry there.  I am getting nowhere
with them and am considering moving to AXIS bank.  Here's the latest
correspondance.

  | http://shopping.rediff.com/shop/subcategory.jsp?cgrfnbr=7498)!

  | need) just to access your website?
  |
  |   Your website used to function just fine earlier before the
  | `upgrade' like so many other banks'.
  |
  | I think now you may either:
  |
  | 1. Offer to reimburse me for the cost of the MS Windows operating
  |   system.
  | 2. Let me know if/when your website will be free of this artificial
  |   `requirement'.
  | or 3. escalate and include your management on this communication.
