If HTTPS is not secure enough, than why do banks use them? Just wondering...

On the other hand it *does* provide some, if not fairly trivial security. -D ----------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION: The information in this electronic mail message is private and confidential, and only intended for the addressee.
