I've been using the new version since I first heard about the update from this forum. It's been trouble free on my several XP machines, and appears to be significantly faster loading pages than earlier versions (it needed to be) . All three Australian banking organisations which handle my various accounts seem to have accepted it for routine transactions without any reservations. Count me in the 'happy' list - thus far anyway .

I think you may have to look elsewhere for the fault....Santander works perfectly with FF latest version. I have just tried it again to double check. If you are waiting for them to do anything different your wait may be a long one.

Are you using any plug-ins with FF, BOAC?

Possibly one of them is interfering with your banking app.?

Certainly 'noscript' can if the site uses multiple web addresses for access control, it will allow the main one but not the second unless you tell it it can.

Funnily enough I was thinking of NoScript!

For example, I've noticed that it does interfere with online CC payments when the vendor refers me to the CC site for confirmation. I think I fixed that, but I can't remember what I did now.

That's odd, 100 - Abbey themselves admit it doesn't work! Yours does?

Noscript is greyed out - not compatible with 3.6 folks. I wonder if the LSO plug-in is the issue? Are Abbey using flash cookies?

Anyone else with 3.6 and Abbey?

B.O.A.C....No script worked with mine also...I have uninstalled it now as it was more trouble than it was worth....Anyway, the problems you are having might suggest it's your copy of FF that is playing up, Perhaps you should uninstall it again and do a complete new install...See if that works.
Just to reiterate, it worked fine with the Santander site. I even signed up for the more secure login system with it. As a matter of interest are you logging in from the new Santander site or the old Abbey site?
Also, as a matter of interest, Abbey site always told me I was using an incompatible browser, however I used to just carry on and it worked fine....

Absolute confusion now!

I have Abbey IT telling me there is a known problem with 3.6

You guys using it fine

I cannot

Site tells me I can continue using Abbey log-in, however I will re-register

Noscript greyed out 'cos it had been 'disabled' (doh!) I was convinced I had seen a warning that it was not compatible. I'll go and wipe the blood from my head off the wall I beat it on

Now escalated to an IT issue with Santander/Abbey. Unable to reach the Santander login as the system always re-directs to the Abbey login for business accounts.

Still works with IE8, bless it.

Sorry for your troubles B.O.A.C. None of it makes any sense...My wife signed up to the Santander online banking last night using FF. No problems whatsoever.
Are you able to try it on someone else's computer? It's got to be in your system somewhere as I said, it makes no sense otherwise......
Computers eh?? you can't live with them!!!............

All sorted now, thanks to the Co-op IT helpdesk.I found I could not access that either. Man there told me to reset FF to 'default' settings - and it all works, with all the old plug-ins there too. Why Santander didn't know that.................... All I'm left with now is no Smilies on PPrune posting box and no access to the icons above???? I'll get there!

EDIT: That's down to 'NoScript' - bit of tweaking to do I guess.

Tweaking complete, but now I discover that Tesco Finance does not allow FF3.6 to access. What is going on? Can it take that long?

Do Tesco say not allowed or that you are using an incompatible browser? If it's the latter just percivere and they are usually wrong...

Nor does the Amazon site in fact it's never liked FireFox, which is why I always have the IEtab installed.

We're sorry but the web browser you're using isn't currently supported by My Accounts.

I am using FF2, and I have no problem with Tesco or Amazon, even with NoScript.

I'm using FF 3.6 and have no problem at all with Amazon.

Very odd.

No thanks, FF2 is fine.

When I find something that can't be done I'll consider it. It works right now. It ain't broke.
