    a video of the File Open process

    I thought the same. Couldn't find one after about 10 minutes searching.

    claim that most of the fraud is committed by MSD staff

    Just as most shop theft is committed by staff, not customers. Next time you're in a store, check which side of the till the security cameras are monitoring.

    Just drop a file with the same name into the open file dialogue box. Microsoft has effectively turned that dialogue box into a slim file-manager

    True. I recall keyboard shortcuts working there in the past too.

    Cera access worries me a whole lot less: we have been wanting open government in Christchurch for some time.

    They will push Paula Bennett if it is required to keep National in government

    Won't happen. CEO on the other hand..

    May actually be used to beef up powers of Work and Income's new Rebstock-headed oversight 'Board' if the opposition don't follow this up carefully.

    This one added step of opening up a file from another computer is what I think some people are finding a baffling and alien concept, and it is something that could probably do with being spelled out a little clearer in explanations of how easy it was.

    Can someone whip up or link us to screenshots or a clip?

    not knowing how to navigate a local area network

    can involve stuff as simple as the way we describe that, as others have pointed out.

    cant get hold of privacy commision answer phone typical i need to find out if my info was safe or has it been acessed help what do i do

    If the Privacy Commisioner's office are too busy to pick up their phones I don't have any other ideas for who could help you than perhaps MSD themselves. Guess that's not reasuring.

    Can anyone else help Jacqui out?

    That's full-on. There must be many people around the country feeling worried right now.

    those who claim not to know how to navigate around a machine they spend a large part of the day using hold views generally in line with those some deem to be 'sheeple'.

    Now that's just insulting. People have many reasons for their level of engagement with the tools we use. Deborah's car example is good.
