I guess I should have elaborated about my use of PayPal. My PayPal authentication includes one of those pseudo-random dongles they supply. Every time I use PayPal, after giving my user name and password, I also have to supply the number from the device. The number is generated using a secret elliptic algorithm, depends on my personal key dongle and changes every few minutes. This seems pretty secure to me. _______________________________________________ MacGroup mailing list [email protected] http://www.math.louisville.edu/mailman/listinfo/macgroup
