I was looking for a new mobile phone and realised that 02’s my-xda.com website refused to let me in, even though I was using the latest version of Mozilla Firefox, and not Internet Explorer or Netscape.
It also refused to let me in using Safari. Fortunately, it did run on IE for Mac.
I had half a mind to write in to the webmaster, though there wasn’t any contact address on the ‘upgrade’ page.
Then I came across this post and realised that I was not alone. In fact, there’s a site for the Firefox Hall of Shame, where you can take part in some ‘activism’ in support of this new, superior browser.
[Update: turns out someone already has written in to 02. However they obviously haven’t done anything about it for months.]

I tried it with Safari, didn’t work – but with Safari + Safari Enhancer (there’s the function to disguise Safari as Win I.E), it does! Ditto for UOB Internet Banking!

I wish webmasters everywhere can acknowledge that nobody uses Internet Explorer anymore.. argh.
Thanks for the link 🙂
