Nudge, nudge and getting back on track, I have registered laptops with US Customs (my company required it then) so to avoid any problems upon return. Someone may have a link regarding this. I dont take laptops overseas anymore thus I search out nearby internet cafes.

Get a POP3 mail account so you can log onto it but remember, it aint always very secure. Be wary of using passwords, cc numbers. I always try to get an internet cafe where the computer reboots after you use it (or I will do the reboot manually if possible).
