For whatever it's worth, I have successfully used and continue to use two banking websites using Mozilla on Debian GNU/Linux: 1. HSBC (http://www.hsbc.com.ph) - you need to install the User Agent Switcher and broadcast Microsoft Internet Explorer as your web browser, though. With that workaround, it works flawlessly. Also works fine using Safari on Mac OS X without any tweaks. 2. BPI (http://www.bpiexpressonline.com) - you need to use an alternative URL to access the frames version, since the drop down menus don't work on Mozilla or Safari. The alternative URL is https://www.bpiexpressonline.com/direct_signinnie.htm. Cheers! --> Jijo -- Federico Vicente C.
