Lycos finance: "Software security widely used for Internet banking and e-commerce can be easily circumvented, and customer accounts at several of Sweden's largest banks remain at risk as a result, a computer expert said on 26 Aug 2002. The Swedish hacking expert, who is well known in computer security circles, but asked not to be named, demonstrated to Reuters how it was possible
within minutes to break through security on Web server SSL software from Microsoft Corp. He showed how to crack the security systems for Internet banking, breaking into three of Sweden's big four banks in quick succession. He was then able to show how to conceal his tracks, making detection difficult afterward." [Source: Peter Andersson, Reuters, 26 Aug 2002; PGN-ed]
