Hi all,

I just had a quick question.  I have the appropriate things checked to alert me when I am going onto a secure website.  I depend on that especially when I am ordering online.  I just recently got window eyes 6.1.  So after the security alert comes up on a web page and I tell it ok the web page that I go to says security report on it.  So that gives me even more assurance when I am on a secure website.  Anyway, I went to two websites the other day to order things and I did not get a security alert on either page.  They wanted all of my personal information without the security thing and I didn't want to do that.  I had to resort to calling the places up on the phone and putting my order in that way.  Both places told me that they pay for the website to be secure so I was wondering if anyone could tell me how that could be when I do not get a security alert.  Thanks very much.  

Lisa
