Nick -
DO NOT access any meaningful device from an internet cafe. They
tend (not all) to be infected boxen even down to key loggers.
I hang out on DALnet and se many, many users complaining that
they lost nicks and channels do to ID'ing to DALnet services via cafe's.
Most of the time it comes down to compromised cafe boxen and
key loggers.
Just my .02 worth.
