Using FF I got through to that site but as I point blank refuse to do
any monetary transaction on the net didn't pay any bill so don't know if
it will accept a transaction on FF.  Some financial sites will not work
with FF a lot of people keep I.E. handy for just such an occasion have
heard it more with online banking than paying bills though.

Have you tried Netscape?

It has both IE and Gecko engines built in. Suspect sites get the FF
treatment, certificated sites go through the IE engine. You nget first
choice though.

One benefit is that it has all the regular security patches that
Mozilla get.

I know I can't log into Scottish Power's on-line system with Firefox - only
IE works.  There are one or two other sites that "misbehave" with it, too.

I found that too inconvenient, so I left Scottish Power! They were by no
means the cheapest, anyway.

The page doesn't render properly, so it makes it rather difficult to 
enter details in the form - it's better using Opera.  Have you told them 
about it?  I managed to enter the details and tried to make a payment 
but my account is in credit so it wouldn't let me.

In my case, I thought it was because I'd forgotten my password and got CS to
reset my accounts details (they used to have some odd requirement that a
password had to contain one digit somewhere, or similar).  I'm on some
capped deal which still seems pretty competitive to me, what with gas prices
in particular going up and up at the moment.  I always try to factor in an
amount for possible hassle when considering changing suppliers of anything.

It _can use_ the ie engine that is "part of" windows - if you're using 
it on windows.  Firefox has an ieview plugin which will open a given 
page in ie.  However firefox/mozilla can run on other operating systems, 
weher this won't work (I've never tried ie under WINE and have no 
intention of bothering).  Also I'm happy to do online banking, but not 
using ie!
