I was going to make the subject Linux Friendly banks then decided not to.

I use UniCredit and As Far As I Can See all the online banking works
under Firefox. I regularly use it to transfer money between internal and
external accounts.[1] None of there services tell me I need IE and it
usually just works. The only gotcha seems to be my firefox install as it
was an update from 0.8 so the pop-up blocker still seems to do something
odd. All fresh 1.0 profiles work with no modification.

There are also a few other banks that my Dad uses that work fine in
Firefox. When he returns I'll ask him so I can post them here as well.

If other want to post banks that are Firefox/Linux friendly then it
could help others.

And if you do change banks, let your old bank know why.
