My browser probably identified itself as 'Iceweasel'. The Webmaster,
who replied to me, did not tell me what Alon knows.
Now I modified the Iceweasel browser useragent string
(surf to 'about:config', filter for string 'user', right-click
on 'general.useragent.extra.firefox' and select Modify,
s/Iceweasel/Firefox/, close, close tab)
and confirmed that the Bank Discount's Web site works OK (I checked only
my investment portfolio - was not interested in other things).
Thanks to Kfir Lavi for raising the question, and to Alon Altman for
giving the up-to-date information.
