Thank you.. Your links made it easy to get uptodate.. My main protection todate was ad aware, norton antivirus and zone alarm firewall.. Had tried to install spybot at one time but the download was messed up and I never bothered.. I had noticed things slipping in now and again and was a tad worried so your links were very timely and helpful. Really appreciate it..

The net is indeed getting more and more dangerous. Static passwords are becoming a thing of the past. Etrade has is a little device that generates a random number every minute. To log on to Etrade you have to have three pieces of information, your account ID, your static password and the random number, which is appended to your password. Essentially you have a different password every time you log in. It’s a much more secure way to do business over the net. Some banks in Europe do something similar. They send each net customer a scratch off card that has fifty random numbers, each time you login you have to scratch off the next number. When you get low on numbers the bank sends another scratch off card. Maybe your broker has something similar.
