[Chester LUG] November Meet + Christmas

[robin592 at yahoo.co.uk]

Cybercrimes - Heists and Hackers!

4:30pm today and tomorrow on the BBC News channel.

Looks like a reason to be paranoid to me, so what about a cryptoparty?

I would find it useful to know how best to encrypt emails, store passwords 
safely, and what all those https warnings I keep getting from Firefox mean. 
If anyone was willing to provide the info I would definitely be interested.

Just cause you're not paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you too!
