I want to know about the effectiveness of Cryptography in NetBanking.
Now-a-days almost all banks offer NetBanking feature and the sites
are VeriSign secured with 128-bit encryption.

Though I only once used NetBanking to send small amount of money,
however I still hesitate to carry on big transactions on the internet.

Please let me know whether Banking on the Internet with a 128-bit
SSL secured website safe or not.

I upgraded my Internet Explorer 6 with SP1, but still the patches keep
on coming. So now I am using Netscape 7 or Mozilla.

Secondly, I store my critical data on the net as a PGP Self-Decrypting
file so that I can decrypt the file in any other city. I therefore
want to store my bank account numbers and other bank information too
as a PGP SDA. Is this method secure or should not be carried out?
