From experience I know that ANZ's 'net banking site is based in Aus (https://www.anz.com), and would imagine that WPT have probably done the same thing. If there's no secure traffic from the .co.nz domains, will BugBear even pay attention to them? > Obviously it's trying to pretend to be "The Bank" (almost all the > domains in its internal list seem banking related) despite the fact that > almost all banks have "webmail" systems rather than sending actual > email. > I used to hate ANZ's webmail system, until I reflected on the fact that their servers are considerably more secure than my home network - And they've definitely got a better chance of picking up an intrusion and doing something to the instigator. -- Matthew Poole Auckland, New Zealand

The "nz" bank domains appear to be: asbbank.co.nz bankdirect.co.nz bnz.co.nz nationalbank.co.nz trustbank.co.nz (obtained by grepping for "nz$" in a suitable transformed copy of the list at the nai.com URL that Dan Clark gave). Curiously anz.com.au is there, but anz.co.nz is not, and westpac.com.au is there but westpac.co.nz is not. Obviously it's trying to pretend to be "The Bank" (almost all the domains in its internal list seem banking related) despite the fact that almost all banks have "webmail" systems rather than sending actual email.
