| May never go back to IE for regular use
Although I like IE, with all the exploits recently (and over the years) I think I may be fully committed to FireFox / Mozilla.
I use the web so much, especially cause I'm a shop-a-holic and the last thing I need is my personal info exploited.  -- ASUS A7N8X Deluxe rev 2.0 w/AMD 3200+ Barton, 1GB Matched Corsair DDR400 RAM, WD Raptor 10K RPM SATA HD's in RAID 0, EVGA FX5900 Ultra 256mb NVidia, WinXP Pro,Logitech z-5300 speakers |

Good advice, but to add another warning: Site logs / transaction logs could hold a history of customer info, so even if u don't store such info it still may be retrievable. -- WASTING TIME spelled backwards is...  |

I do have some sites retain my info, or I use Yahoo Wallet. Watch...Yahoo Wallet will be compromised next.  -- ASUS A7N8X Deluxe rev 2.0 w/AMD 3200+ Barton, 1GB Matched Corsair DDR400 RAM, WD Raptor 10K RPM SATA HD's in RAID 0, EVGA FX5900 Ultra 256mb NVidia, WinXP Pro,Logitech z-5300 speakers |
