They only lost out to fraud. Any company dealing with users and money experience this - look at PayPal.

AllAdvantage is a perfect example of why you can't allow client side services to be calculating things that really should be done server side. You could send a magical packet that would log all your hours for a month instantly.

Sorry about the offtopic rant :)
