I investigated further and found out that 'block images' of Mozilla

firewall, I now see these as 'blocked connections'.)
Closer inspection shows that this is not due to the embedded images, but
the source code contains javascript as well that is pointing to the
external server.
NB 2: I consider this a security hole:
It would be nice, if site specific configuration of java and/or
javascript was possible with Mozilla as is implemented for images,
popups etc.
There are several very good reasons for not allowing javascript
on your machine under any circumstances. Most web page designers
are *not* expert programmers, and defects in javascript programs
are rampant. I don't permit javascript, period.
For the time being, I think I will have to change my bank :-((
Talk to their customer relations people first.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
