But this doesn't solve the actual problem--nearly all cracks of online banks, stores, etc., are *not* done by intercepting HTTP traffic. They're usually done by exploiting security bugs in the server software and stealing information out of the databases. sigHTTP would do nothing about that; in fact, it might exacerbate the problem, by diverting resources that could instead be spent on securing the server. /========================================================\ |John Stracke |Principal Engineer | |[EMAIL PROTECTED] |Incentive Systems, Inc.| |http://www.incentivesystems.com |My opinions are my own.| |========================================================| |This sentance has threee errors. | \========================================================/
