Read the end of that artical, I cracked up laughing.

UA requires the account number to log in (they say this like it is a security feature). Yeah, they do not require a username/password like any rational site (and most airlines were in the same place a few years ago).

HH has an anit-robot check (read some fuzzy number/word and type it back). This has nothing to do with security.

As long as these F'ing morons take security as a joke, this will get worse.
