One of the things that keeps me from using kiosk/internet-cafe machines 
is the almost guarantee that there are keyloggers installed and since 
ssh doesn't play well with s/key, I just stay away...

A cow-orker has a Linux bootable CD that he drags around with him for 
just this purpose.  He reboots any kiosk machine off his linux CD, does 
his thing, and then reboots back to windoze when he leaves.

I'm thinking there are nice portable USB CF readers available, or even 
better, a USB keychain, if one could convince the host to boot off your 
USB keychain.
