1. When user logs in to the page, I can add the sessionid,useragent and ip to the database for identifying the user later. Is there any more predefined variables that I could add to the database for checking, just to make the thing more secure? 2. When user logs in, he enters his username and password, at this time, when he enters the submit button, how easy it is for hackers to get his password 'on the fly' before I get the chance to encrypt it? And how could I make it more secure? Siim Einfeldt P.S Like before, I`d appreciate a copy to my private email too.
