Clearly you let your friend access your PC using your own user account. 
IMHO that he was able to access your bank account is due to your own 
negligence. There's a reason you can have more than one user on your 
system!

(I also think this is partly a problem of your bank's website. With any 
of the Dutch banks, no matter how crappy their sites are otherwise, this 
couldn't ever happen, since they require like triple authentication 
codes with a randomly generated one each time, no browser would be able 
to "remember" that..)

Well, I agree this would be a nice feature to have. Christian is working 
on it, and it's on the roadmap.

Enabling smooth scrolling by default shouldn't be difficult. Any reason 
why we're not doing this?
