Linux Friendly One-Time Credit Card Providers?

PoochieReds writes "My credit card company has just introduced some pretty foul new rules (shortening grace periods, raising fees, etc.), so I've started shopping around for a new one. I use this card for most of my purchases and pay off my balance at the end of each month. One thing that my old CC company had was the ability to use one-time CC numbers. This was really handy for Internet and over the phone purchases, and I like the safety it provides. The downside was that this co. used a flash-based app for this feature. Does anyone have recommendations of a CC company that can provide one-time CC numbers via a regular browser-based web form?"

Okay, sure, flash is a stupid way to do this. Flash might be hard to install on Linux. I haven't tried in a while. But how can the Slashdot editors honestly think this is the kind of thing their subscribers want to talk about? This is just boring.
