        Hello Justin,

        The webserver doesn't know what is a Credit Card #. I guess the
webserver is logging the GET requests like:
someINFO someDATE GET
/something/apply.asp?ccNumber=123456789&cNumber=9871 ... ...
        Change your application to POST the requests.

I just viewed an IIS log and I noticed that the credit card # is loogged.
I beleive that this is a major flaw to log credit card # is clear text.
Does anyone have any advice?


Regards,
Justin
