Re: Browser identification to websites

Not only was I able to to have full access to the site from Konqueror
but not Iceweasel, but it also accepted my user id and password and gave
me access to all the personal information thereon. Although the plan is
a Canadian plan, I was able to access the site from Thailand, where I
now am. The server hosting the site may not be in Canada, however.
When I am back in Canada I will have to investigate further with the
insurance company.

Could it be that your Iceweasel is identifying itself as Iceweasel
instead of Firefox ?
From Joe's observations its safe to assume that site is using browser
identification in its scripts so its probably looking only for IE and
Netscape/Fiefox identifiers and all others getting the 'Access Denied' page.
