That looks peculiar! But diagnosing problems with web browsers is quite
tricky (as I have mentioned before on this list), so perhaps you can try
something a little more direct: I suggesting using libwww-perl, curl or
wget to download the BankWest home page. (`apt-get install libwww-perl`,
`apt-get install curl` or `apt-get install wget`) If you have
libwww-perl installed, open up a terminal and type the following line at
theshell prompt (I will use the % symbol as a generic represention of
your shell prompt -- no need to type it in):

    % HEAD http://www.bankwest.com.au

Here is the response that I get:

    200 OK
    Cache-Control: private
    Connection: close

If something else happens, it is not a browser problem per se, it
is something to do with your access to BankWest servers. (E.g. a
misconfigured packet filter or firewall.) Here is an example of
something going "wrong":

    % HEAD http://localhost
    500 Can't connect to localhost:80 (Timeout)
