If you don't like using Terminal to muck around with the setting, then pop over to version tracker and get Safari Enhancer:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/17776 This allows you to turn on the Debug menu in Safari. Once it is turned on, use it to change the User Agent to one that this bank will support. Personally though, I would send them an extremely strongly worded letter pointing out that their reaction to your request has the marks of some very poor customer relations. Not to mention requiring IE puts your money in the account in serious jeopardy since IE is so bad at security that the Department of Homeland Security tells computer users to use a different browser (uh, you do not need to mention that your are running a Mac OS). Also point out that many other banks doing business in this local area have absolutely no problems allowing customers to use Safari. Perhaps your money would be safer with them.
