WEBSITE OF THE DAY - garlik.com

You're what we might call an advanced web user aren't you? Let's face it, if you're reading this, you're into technology and therefore you're probably familiar with most of what's available online. I bet you do your banking, your shopping, your social networking and myriad other aspects of your life online, don't you? And are you one of the estimated 44% of internet users that use the same password for pretty much everything? Hmmm, thought so.

What if just one of those reputable companies you deal with online lets slip what that password is. Your finances could be in serious jeopardy, or even worse - what if somebody tampered with your Amazon wish list?! Can you imagine the crap you'd get at Christmas? Doesn't bear thinking about.

But seriously, identity theft is the growth area if you're an organised criminal.

Protecting yourself can be a bit tricky too with the sheer size and scope of the web, so this company have developed a security system which, for thirty quid, will scan over four billion internet pages and online databases to see just what's happened to all your personal information.

I'm trying really hard to think of a reason not to do this and I'm stumped. The free trial alone is worth the time.
