I have quicken 2007 installed and working with internet  banking - I
installed it a few months ago using the tips and tricks page on Codeweavers.

IE6 can be installed in a win2k bottle, but because it does not install the
necessary encryption libraries.  (That's because on a 'real' win2k system,
the encryption system is already present.)

There are wine developers implementing the equivalent encryption tools, but
unfortunately I don't have an estimate about when the work will solve this
particular problem.

So, again, Quicken2006 may be your best bet for the moment.

Sorry that I don't have a better solution.
