Any experience with unencrypted connection in Netscape

[SBUH]

Hello, friends. I have my asp pages tested on Netscape browser. And whenever I proceed to the next page, there is an security warning to say that "The information you have entered is to be sent to an unencrypted connection and could be easily read by the third party..."

I wonder whether this warning is important? Because I have asp and database and the shopping cart functions, does it really matter if I don't make the pages encrypted? Will it cause some safty issue for the users information? Does any one who has some experience and guide for me? Thanks very much in advance !

if its sensetive information like addresses or credit card information it should really be on a secure server...

[SBUH]

There are some pages do have those information, then how to do it to make it secure?

ssl server.

[SBUH]

what is that? Could u give some detailed information? I only know that there are some software which can encrypt the web page. Is that enough?

[Jubba]

no when you are making shopping carts and sending sensitive information you should get an SSL server. They cost money to run. Check google for SSL servers
