infamous ie message

[Guest]

hey all,
you know that message: "When you send information over the internet, it
might be possible for others to see that information."

What should I know to manage this risk?

thanks,

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.

I believe it is...

this message at the first time it's installed.

The OP is not asking about the risk of actually displaying the message - the
OP is asking about ways of preventing the risks about which the message is
warning...
