Hi Sergio,

I would suggest to modify it like this

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)

 {

         if (isInNet(host, "127.0.0.1", "255.255.255.255") ) {
                return "DIRECT";
        }

             if (isPlainHostName(host))
                return "DIRECT";
             else
                 return "PROXY proxy_server.my.domain:port; DIRECT";
 }

This may solve the problem you are experiencing IF the home banking system
requires running another (java) application together with your browser

A typical scheme here in Belgium is:

(a) (Client browser)
        |
        | http through localhost (127.0.0.1)
        V
(b) (Module for encryption/authentification)
        |
        | http(s) through proxy
        V
(c) (Home banking site on www)

Remark: (b) may get the proxy authentification from your browser or it must be
set manually: check the documentation of your home banking client, it should be
mentioned somewhere.
