Site (chase bank) specific user agent

A Former User

Can't we just change the browser id to the same as new opera is using: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/43.0.2351.3 Safari/537.36 OPR/30.0.1835.5 (Edition developer)

Ok, laing, I will try that, but first, school me on how to implement and I will report back as to whether it works or not.
Thanks
I am still using O12.17, supplemented by O29 (S L O W L Y I am using it more and more as I learn all the tricks - like I did originally with O12), there are just too many things I like about 12.17 (especially the opera mail inclusion and the drop down search box that allows keywords to search on a specific site)

I just copied form new opera id and pasted into custom user agent field in the old one. Maybe it will help for some sites

Thanks, but please you "copied the New opera ID" (where is that?), where did you copy it from....and how did you paste it into a "custom user agent field" (where is that?)...I have no idea exactly what you are describing...details please (no disrespect intended)

I installed the extension "User Agent Changer" to Opera 12.17, and tried using these IDs (from O29 "About" page)

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/42.0.2311.90 Safari/537.36 OPR/29.0.1795.47

Chrome/42.0.2311.90 Safari/537.36 OPR/29.0.1795.47

Neither work on the Chase bank page for logins.

Well I am trying to figure out why Chase works on one computer and not the other. Only difference is one is one is windows 8 and the other is 8.1. Both are 32 bit version of opera

I am curious. Is this a new computer you are using? Did Chase use to work and stopped working?

Laing, no this is NOT a new computer; and Chase was working perfectly until 2 days ago, then I got the circular login (send auth. code, enter code, back to loging page and over again). I ALSO got this using O29, but once I entered the code, it allow me entrance to my baking page, not so with O12.17.Chase works perfectly with O29 and IE.

I have a solution which is good enough, way better than leaving my beloved old opera to open in another browser. I tried the Kproxy method but kproxy does not work on some sites. I will post this in any relevant thread that has to do with incomparability/security issues.

Reguires installation of neptune: http://www.meadco.com/Neptune/About. I edited my right click menu to run a script so that I am now able to open all the sites with error 40 and even the Chase bank site in Internet Explorer Issues: Normally something about error running script and the url does not display in the address bar, just about blank. And I can't figure out how to bookmark page or use auto login (have to enter password manually). I got this script from one of the old button creator sites.

Here is the script:

Item, View in IE=Go to page, "javascript:(function(){if(location.protocol.match(/^(javascript|about|opera):$/i))return;var l=location.href;var t=(document.getElementsByTagName('title')[0]?document.getElementsByTagName('title')[0].text:l).replace(/</g,'<').replace(/>/g,'>');var w=window.open('','_blank');w.document.documentElement.innerHTML=''+t+' - using Internet Explorer renderingbody{margin:0;padding:0;overflow:hidden;}embed{border:none;}'})();",,"View in IE",View

Stop using an old outdated browser.. Your bank is only trying to protect you and itself from fraud by only supporting the latest security protocols available, O12.17 does not meet the minimum security requirements of your bank

Oh please, I said I don't like any of the new or supported browsers.

Then you will have to live with it. You can't drive around in a '53 Studebaker and then complain that it doesn't have air bags. Opera 12 hasn't seen a major update in something like 3 years. From a security perspective that ancient.

I don't know, but always in an old opera thread somebody smart always suggest using a new browser, like we don't know what is the situation.

I also use an unsupported smartphone (palm pre2) and we have a dedicated community of absolute studs trying to keep them running, especially keeping up with google and their frequent changes. Youtube stops working and we fix it, gmail changes their certs and it gets fixed too. While friends and family are like why don't you just get a new phone. Like I can just waltz into a store and pick up a portrait slider with a physical keyboard

Anyways I offered a solution as others have. It allows one to open websites with issues in a tab inside old opera which to me is better than opening another browser

Heh,heh. I stumbled onto a fix for the Chase bank problem in 12x I searched for and went to the chase mobil site address. Went through the verification process and it went fine, no message about not recognizing the machine over and over. Then went back to the desktop site and voilà, its back working again.
