That sounds good.

The situation with Co-op is that you need some kind of ActiveX applet or
something - it's not as simple as a user agent check.

Also, their old service - which I think is still available - ran on
Java, and used an SSLv2 server or something. Whichever SSL protocol it
was, it has been disabled in Firefox 1.5.

The Co-op are seriously amongst the worst for this, which is sad given
their "ethical" stance in general.

This looks like a useful list of accounts available:

A lot of these - eg., HSBC - are fully compatible with free software. I
suspect that you can only apply for some of these accounts actually in a
branch, though.

Cheers,

Alex.
