Sounds intriguing (I already have Sandboxie,) but the day I have to resort to running a VM inside my Windows installation is the day I start using OS X permanently–warts and all.

In a slightly different twist, not wanting to use my bank account at paypal I always switch to credit card before paying somebody. It’s amusing to see that the payment is backed up by the same credit card.

If you want to be extra sure that in the [unlikely] event of Amazon getting hacked you can make an order setup a credit card and then after payment is confirmed you can go back and deleteremove the card once again

That’s exactly what I used to do. But, after receiving a Kindle Fire I’ve discovered you must keep a credit card on Amazon. As I found out the hard way, you can’t get any free anything (books, apps, whatever) without one. Hm…
My previous and usual account on Amazon is now all intertwined with the Kindle Fire account! Not a good state of affairs.
