OK, thanks. Guess I will stick to my plan of adding software to my Treo that allows it to work as a wireless card. I think you probably get a lot faster access, but I can't justify another $60/month for my usage at this point.
Thanks again for the info!

I've gone through my share of working w/ rainbow tables and what not but this is just sooo easy, so fast it is pretty scary.

The company I work for sells the service for the aircard 580 which operates over many different networks. The service is great and I use it just about everywhere. If you are in the states I think the fee is about $60/month for unlimited BW.

Question: What cellular service do you use with your AirCard? Can I hook it up to my existing GSM cell phone?

That's scary! It makes sense that they are able to do this, since access to the hash does greatly simplify password cracking.
I just tested this under a limited user account and since no install is required it does work under any type of user account.
Hmm, more ammo for blocking the download of exe files through the web filter. It also makes an excellent reason for keeping local admin passwords separate from domain admin passwords, if one is not already doing so.
Thanks for the heads up.

In the UK it would not be economical to use the cell phone network for data.

T-mobile (UK) = USD 1.31 per KB!
