I had that problem a while back with my bank.  I finally got to talk 
with the guy responsible.  He said  "our logs show that every one using 
our site is using IE so there's no reason to support anything else".  
Duh!  Maybe it's because no one with  any other browser can get 
through??  He failed to answer that question.  I'm now with another bank.
