ABC Melbourne am had a story about NAB and another bank providing SMS 
security for internet banking now. The talkback portion had several 
people, but one in particular suggested that one of the best things a 
user could do was stay away from the browser with the big blue e. 
Then others sms'd the trio of AVG, Firefox and Thunderbird as the 
best approach, saying that since they had followed Charles Wright's 
advice several years ago, they have had no problems. This is 
mainstream radio, so the word is getting out.
