Not quite a Topklasse topic but perhaps useful none the less.
Bank online security from the horses mouth. Our online CBA Banking was corrupted today , thankfully no harm done. Bank security ran me through a procedure to sort it. They advised that I must always log on via "Netbank.com.au " in top left box and never via a recorded Favourites ( that was the cause )
Ditto via Google .. neither method is secure ! This applies to any site that needs to be secure. Any others is not a problem.

Curious. I always login through www.commbank.com.au and the site looks very different from www.netbank.com.au
Are you sure you have the correct information?
Regards,
Brian

Yes probably both are secure paths. But my main point is that going via an intermediary such as Google is not.

P. S. How I wish Topklasse had a spell check !

even though little Wifey has a PHD in English not much has rubbed off on me !
