I guess this would have problems with a Bank allowing access to systems with Linux ... Sounds like a good idea running off CD read only?

Australian company Cybersource says it's currently talking to two banks in Australia about providing Linux-based bootable CDs to consumers to ensure Internet banking security.
The company yesterday released information about its Online Banking Coastguard solution. Coastguard is based upon Knoppix, a Linux distribution which boots entirely from CD and is known for its automatic hardware detection features.

Is this mere smoke??
:D

But, would you want to reboot your pc and boot from a cd/pendrive/whatever everytime you wanted to get to your bank details?
 
I have no problems with rebooting .... Yet.
Guess it depends upon vulnerability percieved or actual.
I only use web banking as a feeder to a non-web a/c.. Infrequent access really.
:D
