Perfect sense. Clearly the ING's left hand is unaware of what its 
right hand has been doing for months...

I expect someone is enjoying the first fruits of his massive bonus as 
we speak! (It only occurs to me now that we never hear about women 
taking home massive bonuses. Is this because they don't get any, or 
because they're better at keeping mum about them...?)

Hey Harry,<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Sorry for the mixup: ING Direct is an independent subsidiary of the big
ING Dutch bank (internet-only subsidiary &lt;-&gt; higher interest
rates), and their website is different:
<a href="http://www.ingdirect.com">www.ingdirect.com</a><br>
&nbsp;<br>
Step 1 - Once you are a customer, you have to enter your acct #, and the
browser optionally remembers it (so far, so good, even with Opera)<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Step 2 - If ING Direct recognizes that you are coming back, it lets you
click in your access code (that part works with Opera), and if it does
not recognizes your previous visits, it asks you a series of security
questions - after which you can check a checkbox to make them remember
you on that computer. This is the part that doesn't work: every single
time, I have to answer some security questions (does not work with Wand,
since these are not password fields, just plain text fields).<br>
&nbsp;<br>
My guess is either JavaScript issue and/or cookie handling. Hopefully if
enough people email them about Opera issues, they'll fix them :|<br>
