I would advise against that. If people have your personal Dialup ISP information, such as the username and password, they can gain access to your account info, including credit card information depending on where it is located. Remember even if they can't access it directly, there is another method people use to gain information. It is called social engineering. They can call the ISP and try a variety of ways to pry the information out of their system by talking to people on tech support. If they had your username and password, it wouldn't be all that hard to find some dumb person within the company to form over all of your personal details to a stranger. | |||
