Thanks

lastpass.com, a useful pointer. I've been using KeepAss (sorry KeePass) which is good, but more hassle to use multi-platform and with a good backup.

Imagine having all your passwords extra-safe, and extra-lost because of bad housekeeping. Ugh.

So, thanks for the recommendation, makes ElReg the fine place it is! (smarm smarm)

Incomplete article...

Further down the same linked page is (now) the sentence I roughly translate as:

"According to verbal reports to AktieTorget from an affected broker, a good 60 million Kronor has been made available by investors. The suspension of trading can be withdrawn as soon as these reports have been confirmed."

Also "Today's trading suspension has nothing to do with suspicions of insider trading."

Excitement though, TPB has been nothing if not good interest value:)
