Summary:
Etherwall allows two modes of operation on the Ethereum chain, in full node and thin client. Because users have to download and configure this software, it can be difficult. Given the fact that this wallet's security has been breached in the past and user's funds have disappeared from their accounts you should be advised to double check the URL when connecting to the thin client.
