Judging by the state of security of their network, I wouldn't go with
them. Security is the last thing they should be talking about on their
site. Just my 2 cents.

Is anybody here familiar with Webex (http://www.webex.com)?  It looks like a
pretty good online meeting, virtual office thingy.  However, on their
website they state that "Data streams are hashed to prevent wire tapping."
I think their buzzword compliance generator has the turbo button pressed. ;)

This is a possible solution for me and I want to make sure I am not sticking
my foot in my mouth by giving it a green light for security.  Any good or
bad feedback would be appreciated.
