How can I tell if there's spyware if I log on in guest mode?

I'm at a B&B in Costa Rica and I want to check my CC balance. However, I don't want to give away my password. Using Windows XP Pro w/ SR2 with only two logon options, either administrator or Guest. What's a guy to do?

I travel abroad a lot and likewise, use public access to some of my accounts, etc. I always carry my passwords encrypted on a USB flash memory drive using Roboform.

It is also possible to use a Sony Puppy fingerprint reader (USB) that will replace your passwords with a fingerprint scan. That can be installed and attached to any computer quickly.

I copy and paste from full alphabet list when I'm using public computer.
