  I'm concerned about potential security problems with my Checkfree electronic
funds transfer account.  Other than bodily entering my home and using my
computer, or searching my desk, is there any other way that someone could
find out my code and access my account?  After reading Cliff Stoll's book*,
I assume there must be, and would like a more expert opinion.  *The Cuckoo's
Egg.     THanks, Lucy Quimby
