Bank tracking bug.

If we work out a way to fix the deny issues with one bank, we may be able to fix
the rest.

Please spread the word about http://blue-labs.org/financial-shames.php so I can
make a more accurate list of sites that do/don't work with Mozilla.

Thanks

As I have asked in bug 127539, why are some of these bugs now regarded as
evangelism, if they worked in former releases of Mozilla and Netscape?
sven: because:
1/ Some of these sites may have changed
2/ The former release may contains bugs that 'buggy' websites relies on. (which
would make the sites fail in new versions of gecko browsers, but also newer
standards compliant browsers)
3/ Some of the bugs may be invalid

PS: I take bug 127539, as every other evangelism bug, very seriously, but don't
have the time to work on it right now (but it really looks like an evang bug,
see last comment.)

one of the best references/recommendations I've found for encouraging financial institutions to support firefox is located at bankers on-line web site 

http://www.bankersonline.com/security/security_browserthreat070204.html 

It was written in 2004 during the download.ject attack, but much of it still applies today.  This is a good link to send when contacting banks.

should give a fairly accurate list of current open TE bugs involving online banking, should anyone wish to update the dependencies here (which I note are very very old and highly incomplete).
