Have you subscribed to the Privista service?  Theyw ill let you view your credit
report online as often as you wish.  I think you can also post corrections that
must be included.  Plus, if there are ever ANY inquiries or changes your your
personal credit you get a notification email. You also get periodic "No news is
good news" emails assuring you that nothing has changed.    I think it costs
about $50/year with the first month free.
