Well, having extra passwords would not solve anything.  If a supposed
hacker can fool a person and get one password, what stops he/she from
getting the other passwords?  This is especially true if they use a virus
that can sniff out keystrokes.  In order to really add more security you
would have to get away from using extra passwords.  One possible way is to
have a 'call-back' system like the previous message stated, but that would
defeat the purpose of e-gold's speedy payment system.  An important truth
about computer security is to remember that the weakest link is almost
always the humans. Human mistakes are easy to make such as opening an
infected e-mail attachment and e-gold can hardly help that. From the
computer system stand-point, e-gold is fairly solid. Any extra methods
that e-gold takes needs to address the real risk, the human factor.
