Webmail security

Webmail users really should read this article if you ever log on to your account in a public place. Make Your Webmail More Secure - Wired How-To Wiki: This may be OTT for normal usage, but if in doubt it's a great tip: "If you're using a public computer, just enter part of your userid, then use the mouse to go to the password box and enter part of your password, then mouse back to the userid... throw in some mistakes and backspaces, too. This technique will scramble userid and password keystrokes captured by hardware or software spy tools."
