Scott, your user ID and password go directly from your browser to the Datek web site.

However, for your own peace of mind, I suggest copying the files to your local hard disk, so that you aren't running it off of my web site. (Also avoids problems should the site be down.)

Download instructions are on the instruction page.

There are currently no cookies, etc. set by the pages, so there's no insecure information left on your hard disk after you close your browser.

The only security issue I can think of is the fact that you enter the password once for each browser session, and don't have to enter it again. Keep this in mind if you walk away from your computer and somebody else may have access to it.
