463530 2006-06-16 06:05:00 I have a problem uploading a payment batch file (*.ABA) with my bank when I use Firefox. The error message is that it cannot find the file.
When I do the same operation using IE there is no problem and the file can be uploaded.
Any ideas?

463531 2006-06-16 06:43:00 Your bank is living in the past and has not updated its website to work with Firefox/Opera probably. IE is not completely web standard compliant, as I am led to believe by all I have read, and when it does work much of the code writing are "kludges". zqwerty (97)
463532 2006-06-16 07:32:00 So it's a bank problem rather than a browser problem even though it works fine with IE? bpt2 (6653)
463533 2006-06-16 07:45:00 FireFox just has it's own way with Active-X components and won't allow then to load, so you get some problems seeing things on that site . . . or it won't allow the IE-based page to load at all .

Either way, your bank is behind times . . but then again is the US Internal Revenue Service, it too uses ONLY IE-based garbage .

I hope you are running 128-bit encryption when you work on IE with your bank . . . look for the little padlock in the lower right corner of the page while you are there .

No lock = leave immediately!

And get SpoofStick ( . spoofstick . com/) to make sure you are really on the bank's true page . . . . as of this moment, SpoofStick will not work with the latest FireFox, although SiteAdviser (http://www . siteadvisor . com/" target="_blank">www . spoofstick . com/) to make sure you are really on the bank's true page . . . . as of this moment, SpoofStick will not work with the latest FireFox, although SiteAdviser (http:) will .
