I was one of the "lucky few" that was on Kim Mick's laptop (this was published in the Colorado Springs Gazette). It had been over six years since I worked for MCI, and she is well known for keeping lots of confidential informaton on her laptop. When I called the "ask HR number" they stated they will try to implement a more secure method in the future. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside!
