    Default Dodo Broadband, what a security risk!!!

    Tonight i'm at a friend of a friends house... using their internet, when all of a sudden the pages stop loading and i am redirected to a Dodo page holding all the personal details of the account holder.

    Address, Phone numbers (home and mobile), Full name, email address... etc etc

    The page was asking me to confirm the email address.

    I know this is not the most personal info out there, but to just pop up on ANY users pc while connected to thier network was pretty poor i thought.

    The thing i find amusing is when you sign up, they tell you how you details are secure and will not be passed on etc.... Yet they are happy to just post them to ANYONE using a pc on that network.

    What a joke.
