My Bank has been trying to have me use this, well they have a pop-up every time you log on. No way I trust no one, much less something with trust in the name.

I look after my own security, personally I feel this is just the Bank trying to look after noobs.

Hi DavidR,


The situation with CA and security certificates leaves a lot of questions unanswered for me and possibly also for other users of this forum, and in general, read about some of the issues in relation to the Perspectives extension in Fx or flock here: http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4156
Trust is a very important digital  issue, but when you hear about specific sub-certificates etc. etc. it is not really building up much trust, just my point of vieuw,
