I sure hope it doesn't happen to me or anyone else here. I guess that makes sense to stuff everything in the bag and go. As for the YMCA theft, man that's gotta be a bummer. I had my wallet stolen sometime and I can relate to it taking several months to get all your cards replaced etc. I think Amtrak Guest Rewards took the longest... Now I try to keep a list of every item in my wallet.

Reading all about these viruses makes me glad I use a mac ! I have only twice in the past 5 years had incidents that were virus-like. The first was simply because of the hard drive going bad from age & corrupting itself, the second seemed to be from a bad core audio install which may or may not have been corrupted from some bad software. May have been because I had previously used an older OS. Dunno. I use a few apps that only work on Mac otherwise I might have considered springing for a high end Windows machine with Windows 7 (I hear that's a really solid OS ?).
