[Gllug] Online banking

[Jake Jellinek]

Further to my last e-mail I tried it again with a newer version of
Galeon (1.2.0) after running the following on the command line first:-

gconftool -s /apps/galeon/Advanced/Network/user_agent --type=string
"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)"

And it seems to work fine now with the natwest banking system :)

Jake.
