Just thought I'd mention that DATEK never fixed the password security issue I brought up months ago, although Peter seemed very concerned about it at the time. You can still enter only part of your password to get access to your account. (I just enter the alpha portion of my alpha-numeric password when I log in) However, the full password is still required for trade confirmation. Peter said he didn't think brute force attempts to crack passwords were likely or possible, so he wasn't concerned that this irregularity would make it any easier to "guess" somebody's password.
