To quote Chris Green above. "How does that make the site 'dangerous'? All it means is that communication between you (i.e. the user) and the site isn't encrypted. As you don't need to send or receive any confidential information the lack of encryption is wholly irrelevant! I would argue it is *not **wholly irrelevant* when the largest search engine uses it as a ranking factor. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
