Your Wi-Fi can tell people a lot about you

You are dead WRONG. Here's why:: SSL is ONLY safe to the BANK'S system. ...Meaning no one can crack the bank's servers for info (supposedly, as it HAS happened on occasion in the past).

Haven't you ever heard of keystroke loggers? THIS is only ONE of the MANY tools usurpers use to collect data from YOUR computer as you IMPUT it. Therefore, they can get anything they want INCLUDING your User IDs and Passwords to ANY accounts you have ranging all the way from this ZDNet account all the way up to Financial Institutions and beyond (like your employer's accounts if you're using a company computer). Then they go into YOUR/your EMPLOYER'S accounts at YOUR/your EMPLOYER'S SSL "protected" bank(or whatever account) and rip you/your employer off, steal your IDs and ruin your credit reports!!!

Do yourself a favor and GET a clue about HOW IT REALLY WORKS before you post drivel like that again. Thank you; Posted by: btljooz Posted on: 03/02/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
