-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Using Konqueror set your browser identification to IE 5.5 on Win2k works fine in this instance.
OSX is supported on lots of banking sites these days and the Apple Safari browser uses the same HTML rendering engine as Konqueror. You can do a similar thing in Mozilla but it involves mucking around with a config file and not using the GUI. This changes the USER AGENT field of the HTTP request header which the server ASP page will be checking (at least I hope it is an ASP page). There are some sites that do additional javascript checking that this work around does not fix.
