nova2 - in HTTP every packet tells the server what browser you're using. I find it rather odd that you would complain about a browser that is barely a week old. There's a very real possibility that they haven't tested their applications or site with it and as such can't guarantee that they will work. Hence why you get a page telling you you've got an unsupported browser.
