I always use my own machine. I never trust putting sensitive info into some other machine. And I check to make sure there is an ssl connection as I use such info. But I dont worry about using a wireless connection because I treat every machine on my (very small) network as an island. Each runs a firewall and all sit behind the linksys router. Effectively I treat my network as an extension of the Internet when it comes to security. I send nothing in the clear--ever. I also dont have windows machines to worry about so that helps. That's just how I do it. There are other ways. - -- JT Morée PC Xperience, Inc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFDrhJ1JwGi/ukQqERAqGHAKCkUilZ+jfgx9P3Ed6akyPgCEca4gCgv+K8 gQ5aarK0RzozqUoaC7q4mJw= =aRms -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
