    Hmmm.
    Why isn't there more support out there by the banks, etc for Firefox and other browsers?

    I guess the excuse they'd use is that IE has around 90% of the browser market. It's a shame, I prefer Firefox.
  • Yes and IE is cr*p. How many security flaws are exploited and how many patches/updates are released to try and block them!
  • If you want to use accountunity or egg money manager from Firefox, just download the IE Tab addon. It allows you to render a page using IE but from within Firefox. You can create a list of sites that will always render with IE, so I just add the banking sites to that.

  • Hmmm. Had a look at the above but it only works with Internet Explorer and not Firefox it seems, nor with Safari on a Mac. Having said that, fd Internet Banking Plus doesn't work with a Mac either, nor Firefox - *tut*.

    Because they all use IIRC ActiveX which the other browsers don't (can't?) support.


    Even EMM doesn't work on Firefox:

  • I've very grudgingly set myself up on Egg Money Manager as it is IE only.

    The various services provided by Yodlee.com aren't browser-specific but you do have to trust the company with your passwords.

    The benefit of Egg Money is that the confidential info stays on your own PC.

    Firefox is slowly cathcing up on the bugs and security flaws.

    The safest browser to use at the moment is Opera.
