I tried to get my local bank to fix their internet banking service about a month ago. I ran into a 'brick wall'. They only support Windows and MacOS, since neither currently implement ECN, they don't have a problem :-(
The only answer I got is 'we don't support Linux'. The operator tried to find some one interested in the network, but the answer was always the same. 'We don't support.....'
They actually suggested I 'upgrade' my browser at one point!
Their service actually works perfectly with Netscape and Linux 2.4.x (as long as ECN is disabled).
