I just tried it and I don't see "Location" in the file called cookie, which
may be because I'm in the USA, not Sweden. However, if there *were* a
"Location:" header in that file, the best way to handle it would be to tell
curl to follow it:

     curl -c cookie -L -A .....
https://internetbank.swedbank.se/bviPrivat/privat?ns=1

That'll make curl follow Location headers and store cookies in the cookie
file. Subsequently you'd use:

     curl -b cookie -b cookie -L -A ........

so that curl will load and save cookies for you.
