Not so. Both these tools have a facility where the keychain re-locks itself after a user-set interval of non-use. Use a keychain password that is NOT your login password, and have it re-lock after five minutes and any time the machine sleeps or the screen saver turns on. Memorize the hotkey for making your screen saver come on (http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20050706194219822) and use it any time you step away from your machine. Finally, set yourself a "firmware password," and your machine is as secure as you can reasonably get it. -- Macs R We -- Personal Macintosh Service and Support in the Wickenburg and far Northwest Valley Areas. http://macsrwe.com _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list MacOSX-talk@omnigroup.com http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
