Does anyone know how good security is on hotmail accounts?
Can my employer read my personal emails if I access them from my work PC ?

It really depends on how your work network is set up and what security
techniques your IT Dept. has in place. As far as Hotmail's security, no
one can log in as you unless they have your password. If you've set
your computer to not remember it and haven't told anyone the password,
there is a good possibility that the password is still secret. However,
there are ways of finding what has been typed on a computer.
The best solution is to not do anything on a work computer that would
make you uncomfortable or get you into trouble if your employer saw it.
After all, you have no privacy rights on your employer's computer. It
is the company's property, not yours.

Any packets traversing your employer's network are, potentially, viewable
by your employer's IT staff. If you don't want them to see what you are
doing on their computers, don't do anything on their computers that you
don't want them to see you doing. ***ANYTHING***. Except whatever work
related tasks that they pay you to do for them.

that you wouldn't want posted on such a bulletin board.
