I have just tested it with an almost 3-year-old version of Konqueror (KDE
version 3.1) and it worked! I am surprised and warmheatedly impressed.

I sometimes wonder if these talks about bugs, incompatibilities and the like
are merely an excuse. Surely they are just afraid of what they do not know.
I once played with a Perl script that can in principle authenticate
automatically, generating reports for me overnight. I never managed to get
it working unfortunately.

For the curious, a big Perl repository for on-line banking systems:
