Then use firefox for banking.  You know well enough the situation with 
konqueror.

I'm suggesting that for their own protection, not to say sanity, they should 
not go on perpetuating a problem.  Either resolve it, or walk away.  Entirely 
your choice.  My decision is made.  I will not respond more unless I can 
actually help someone.  I have been giving 'works for me' answers in the hope 
that it would prompt people to understand that issues can be local ones.  If 
they don't want to listen, OK.
