Mine have never been that kind of a problem either. Nevertheless, you 
asked to hear how to do it, so I kindly complied <smile>.

Not that I know of.  But that doesn't mean it can't happen.

We warn our clients (in our TOS) that nothing on a public server should 
be considered secure, and we hope you do too.

Specifically, we know that there are people out there who store credit 
cards, at least temporarily, in cleartext.  We also know that Visa and 
MasterCard have both said you're not allowed to do that.  Yet it 
persists.
