might be possible for others to see that information."

What should I know to manage this risk?

What should I know to manage this risk?

Encrypt any sensitive data e.g. passwords, account numbers etc

Get an SSL certificate.

That's not even the issue, Mark.

Although an SSL connection does cryptograph the cionnection at the
protocol level, the message in question is that the IE always displays
this message at the first time it's installed.
