I've read somewhere that you should never use your credit cards over wireless connections, you should always do it while plugged into your modem via a Cat5 cable.
thanks englishman,

i have that same verification too, but it doesnt get used on all web sites, i must admit i do feel much happier when it is used.
luckily my credit card is automaticaly covered for fraud, so although i have been billed for the transactions, they will sort it out and make investigations,

yes that might be a good idea not to use the wirless connection when using card over internet,,, by Cat 5 ? for me that would be by ethernet cable lap top straight to modem, then disconnect the wirless connection
