Yes, but I use the same UA string with both Linux and Windows. This string specifies the OS as Windows. When I use this with Linux, HSBC refuses to load the Login web page.
To change User Agent String with Mozilla/Firefox have look at

The same thing worked out for me and I was able to access my HSBC account.

HSBC uses too many pop ups during the process of authentication in to the account, hope you havent enabled any pop up blocker while you were trying to access the site.
