I have that sometimes, because some sites are registered with my bank too. Is there a padlock showing? Or https on the Url bar?

does anyone use debit cards when paying online, i put my card details into the next site and now my bank is there asking for the same details, a security tyoe thing but i haven't had to do that on other sites and a bit paranoid now!!!???

your bank should never ask you for your details on line...

if you want to check enter teh wrong ones to m ake sure but even then it could have a trojan or cookie on it...best bet...dont even open it..

Tooch: The credit card - if it's verify by visa (or some such) it's OK.

Having said I'd spend the day putting my feet up, I ended up cleaning out two kitchen cupboards, cooking mince pies and sausage rolls etc. to eek out the 'leftovers' DD wanted :rotfl:

DD has now gone with lots of leftovers. DS and DiL are playing on the wii in the front room. They have ordered chinese for themselves for dinner so I don't have to cook them anything!

I will forage for cold cuts soon. I might just do a bubble and squeak with the left over brussels etc.

The padlock and the s on the http should mean that the site is secure, and the info is encypted.

Is it Halifax secure or mastercard secure or similar? They do that.

Tooch - this may give you a bit more information:

toochoosey most I use uses https://usa.visa.com/personal/security/vbv/index.html?ep=v_sym_verified verified by Visa, it pops up when you pay after registering your details to confirm the passwords etc. I've never had any problems using it myself.

Children have picked at stuff all day, from sandwiches to meats, fruit and sweets, I'm thinking if I make them a large meal now it'll get wasted. Maybe some veg soup for DS2, fruit salad for DS1. They're watching Narnia aswell as doing bag 2 of the police station, only another 7 to go after this one!

Need to make up the futon bed in DS1s room for DPs brother incase he decides to stay here tonight, do some laundry aswell

Lil-me - so pleased the Police Station is keeping them occupied. I saw the stickers when I mutilated the box and thought they looked a bit fiddly!

Dusty - what film did you watch?
