I usually us konqueror, but I do have and use mozilla/firefox/epiphany/galeon
and probably there are others too. If you goto www.scotiabank.com and hit the
link near the top left that says "Online services... Banking signon" does it
load that page for you? That is the page where I need to enter my card number
and password but I can't get that page to load with testing or unstable. I
agree about the encryption, it needs to be good & tight.
