Protecting Transactions by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
Whenever you enter any
personal information regarding your purchase it is always done on a page
using SSL. To find out if your transaction is guarded by SSL, look
for the picture of the unbroken key or closed lock in your browser window
(both the Netscape Navigator/Communicator and Microsoft Internet Explorer
browsers use SSL). Either indicator means SSL is hard at work.
The easy way you can tell if SSL is guarding your
transaction is to check the URL of the page. It should
change from "http" to "https" when processing secure
transactions.
