I know what you're asking about that head-line:"Is he trying to tell us that the nation's second-largest bank does not already support the world's second-most-popular Web browser?" Bingo! That's it exactly BoA does not support Firefox, at least not officially and at least not today That's not to say Firefox doesn't work on the BoA Web site - it does, by and large, I am told - but it is not listed as one of the three "supported browsers" on the bank's FAQ page. (The three are Safari, Netscape and - uh, I forget the third.) So, Firefox may be newly listed with the Guinness Book of World Records for having delivered the most downloads in a day But listed with Bank of America? Not so much. The matter was brought to my attention by a Buzzblog reader who had contacted BoA technical support about an issue he was having while trying to bank online using Safari. Wanting to preempt any suggestion that he switch browsers, the reader wrote in his e-mail to BoA: "Please don't tell me to just use Firefox instead.That is not an acceptable answer, not after the .. .site has officially supported Safari for so many years."
