problems with online banking - safari web browser on mac

[tortoise4]

Over the past few weeks I have encountered a problem accessing HSBC online banking via my Mac. The problem also occurs when trying to access my MSN Hotmail account.
I can access other secure sites such as Alliance & leicester banking and my Yahoo account.
When I use my windows pc at work, there isn't an issue.
Is this a Safari web-browser problem? Is there a work around fix?
At present I am unable to do online banking at home!!

so your basically asking us "I have a problem, how do I fix it"

but haven't told us what the problem is or any details about it.

I am using an imac g5 powerpc, running tiger mac osx version 10.4.11. The browser is safari 3.0.4. All software is up to date.

As I stated in my previous post, I have problems accessing Hotmail and certain online banking institutions. This is only a relatively recent issue and I was wondering if it was due to a browser software update. If so is the a work around fix?

I'm not aware of any issues, but I'd suggest trying Firefox, and see if it works there.

Some sites can have issues with some browsers (read: the site has been poorly constructed).

Well actually, just to add: I think they did used to have these funny noises, but only on the old phone systems from the 40s or before... not any more.
