As far as I know there's no such check.  I just go to their main page 
and click on "Internet banking" and it all works.

Mind you, I failed to book a ferry to the Isle of Wight in the summer 
because Wight Link have added a stupid "you must be using IE" check to 
their web site.  No problem - I went with Red Funnel instead and told 
Wight Link why they'd lost my business.
