I would suggest that a far better approach would be to suggest that the
including IE5.5 in that list is in direct violation of best-practice
standards within the security industry (citation to the appropriate CERT
advisory someone?), and to require users to voilate basic security
principles or surrender their right to claim against the bank for
security failures is a fragrant abuse of the banks position of power in
the relationship.
Or something along those lines.
