Opera and UTF Encoding

Uhmm.. I can't seem to get onto http://www.bankofamerica.com with Opera.. It apparently doesn't have the right encoding (I set Opera to use whichever encoding is necessary for a particular page). Any way to fix this? I think it wants UTF-128 encoding..

I personally just use IE whenever I work with those kinds of official sites. Don't want to risk anything getting blocked or misinterpreted.

Works alright on my Opera.

It wants UTF-8, or any of the Western ISO or Windows encodings.

(UTF-128? Every character stored as a 128 bit value? How many letters do you need?)

Seems to load fine on Opera 7.11 for me; I have it set to UTF-8.

I've had some sites outright not work with Opera, so sometimes meh.

Well.. it's not so much the site itself as logging is as the problem..
