Could you please enlighten us as to which bank that was? (and if you can

Sure. The bank was Suncorp-Metway. I only read about it on HUMBUG
(http://www.humbug.org.au) but heard that other groups had similar
threads. I gather there must have been a significant reaction for the
bank the "clarify" the matter so quickly.
The original thread on the HUMBUG General list can be found with this
subject line:
"Anti-unix changes in Suncorp-Metway's updated banking"
The thread starts here:

Re-reading, I stand corrected - Netscape 6.1 was included as authorized
software but none of its close relatives were mentioned.
