Yeah, I'm considering at the moment whether to stagger my credit report requests and take my time cleaning them up, or just order them all in one big butch and do all the heavy lifting right away. (I read about these staggered requests on the site I mentioned in my previous post.)

Protect yourself by asking bank to email when any transaction occurs.
Indeed. I set up some months ago automatic e-mail notices at my bank's web site to inform me 1.) when my available credit balance goes below a certain (rather high) point, and 2.) of any purchases of over a certain (small) dollar amount.
