Good to know

What is the difference between http and https ? Don't know how many
of you are aware of this difference, but it is worth sending to any
that do not.....
**The main difference between http:///and https://is It's all About
keeping you secure** HTTP stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol The
S (big surprise) stands for "Secure".. If you visit a Website or web
page, and look at the address in the web browser, it Will likely begin
with the following: http://. This means that the website is talking to
your browser using The regular 'unsecured language. In other words, it
is possible for Someone to "eavesdrop" on your computer's
conversation with the Website. If you fill out a form on the website,
someone might see the information you send to that site This is why
you NEVER ever enter your credit card number in an Http website! But
if the web address begins with https://, that Basically means your
computer is talking to the website in a Secure code that no one can
eavesdrop on. You understand why this is so important, right? If a
website ever asks you to enter your credit card Information, you should
automatically look to see if the web address begins with https://
If it doesn't, You should NEVER enter sensitive Information. PASS
IT ON (You may save someone a lot of grief).
