Been using firefox 3 for a bit now and only problem I’ve had with the beta versions is that Natwest Internet Banking wont work.
Until today I’ve been using the IE Tab extension to make natwest open in an Internet Explorer tab within firefox however that isn’t ideal as it means having to use internet explorer which is never a good idea.
Fortunately, I’ve now solved the problem and internet banking works fine in firefox 3 beta 5. To solve simply crack open about:config in firefox. Ignore the nice warning about dragons and then find the string general.useragent.extra.firefox. Right click on that string and select modify. Then simply remove the b5 so it reads as Firefox/3.0
Firefox will now identify itself as firefox 3 and not as firefox 3b5 and internet banking will no longer complain!
