Later it showed up on my credit card bill, but I didn't receive the CD. Although I got it resolved and received a credit, I was out the currency exchange fee (both ways), and the exchange rate shifted against me as well between the charge and refund. - -Ken ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 09 Dec 2005 09:35:50 -0500 From: Ken Descoteaux Subject: Re: Another - different - Sony vulnerability, included on Imogen Heap's "Speak for Yourself" I should be clear that this was via the Imogen Heap website's fulfillment company (whose name escapes me). Not to dissuade anyone from trying them, just a heads up that their system is less than bullet proof. It's probably related to the high security settings that I have (I also can never buy anything via paypal links, my transactions are always expired no matter how fast I fill out the forms).

(I have no idea how Sony/Sunncomm could manage to make a program to do that which managed to cause a security problem. Truly, is there no limit to their ineptitude?)
