The problem is though, that in the need to access my bankaccount via the internet, I have to use JVM (Jave Virtual Machine).

Are you sure that it requires Java?  I'd like to have a look if you don't mind, if you could send the URL please :-)

I haven't seen any online banking sites that require Java, that's all.

Yes, that does sound odd. Maybe he means JavaScript?

Why not use Java? Java is more secure than ActiveX and a applet that connects to a database is VERY secure. Stay with that bank man, it rocks. BTW, best eCommerce solutions today are all based on Java. That's my job, developing for a eCommerce company using Java.

This issue has nothing to do with Security, surely... As long as the connection is encrypted it doesn't matter what language the client is written in.

I am positive. I can't access the bank account if my machine hasn't got JVM. You can try accesing this site https://www.netbank.nordea.dk/netbank/index.jsp on an Amiga and see what happens...

I am using a regged version of IBrowse v2.3, AmiSSL2 installed and working, javascript support active and working, so the setup is alright.

Anyone knows if someone has picked up Holger Kruse' work?

Well, then the Amiga can't do everything afterall :-(

Yup, that's Java alright!!!
