I use the web site and have to switch browsers. So if you need people to
complain etc, to get capitol one to support the browser tell me or post

I have also heard that you can spoof the browser so mozilla tells the
site(capitol one) that it is ie or ns4.7 or whatever. You might want to
try this and see if you have any problems.
