Dr. Dave interviews Wells Fargo executive Wendy Grover about early online-banking risks, then explains his own middle ground between fear of the Internet and careless use. He follows the troubled Windows XP Service Pack 2 rollout, questions the hype around Bluetooth and discusses Microsoft’s planned Longhorn release before it became Windows Vista. Callers ask about display drivers, security software, keyloggers and a computer damaged after a power failure, while the show also revisits DaveMason.com’s cartoon feature and the unusual Apple iPod sold through HP.
