I just had this idea... Change your bank passwords. It's so crazy it just might work.

You didn't read the article, did you?
Mint.com is very useful. He wants to use it, but he wants it to use OAuth or similar systems to communicate with banks via an access token and APIs, not stored passwords and screen scraping.
Knowing how backwards even the big banks are, I doubt this'll come for about 50 more years. Nothing Mint can do...
