Its a nice idea I suppose but there is software out there that will pull the username and passwords as you log in to any site or email, all it needs is to be connected to a network and it'll get the lot as I demonstrated to our lecturer at college.
Msn, email, webmail, and quite a bit more too.
Its very worrying when you have to wonder if that software is installed at a cybercafe that you go to, I certainly wouldnt put any login details into any machine that I wasnt certain was safe.
