    Hmm does this mean that we shouldnt be using online password managers and focus on encrypting on the keyboard level?

    An interesting read. Confirms my thoughts on virtual keyboards. I have a couple of sites I am required to use them when logging it.

    Interesting read, though it was written when IE6 and Firefox 2 were current and turns into an ad for Trusteer Rapport by the end of it. I'm sure most of their points still hold up today. Virtual keyboards seem like an inconvenient way to not gain any real security.
