Firebird 0.6.1 has quite a few problems with javascript related pages:

maybank2u.com.my is one of them.

I tested out with gecko based browsers = mozilla 1.4, 1.5 and they work
fine. Firebird (the browser) however is based 1.5 alpha. There is also
problems with those using gcc 3.3.x with pure virtual method call errors
which have been fixed and slated for 0.6.2. So the issue has definitely
been fixed elsewhere.

Solutions?

1. Build from cvs or a daily snapshot
2. Temporarily use mozilla 1.4, 1.5 or related galeon, epiphany etc.
3. Wait for 0.6.2

It's annoying, but unlike mozilla, firebird is still in early
development, so they are right in chasing after the latest mozilla base
for each release (which may be in alpha as is the case now) and also UI
fixes. 

Until they decide to start to put stability vs features as a priority,
each firebird release will always have issues.
