All,

I don't want to be seen as defending the practice of sending plaintext,
cracked passwords over the net, but in Quakenbush's defence, they do warn
of this fact on their "Privacy Statement".  They even state that the
passwords will be visible through a sniffer.  See
http://www.quakenbush.com/privacy.htm.

Just my $.02 worth.

Chris.
