Movable Type 4.25 tag:ask-leo.com,2008://3.3291-comment:31311 Comment from N3T D3VIL on 2008-08-01 N3T D3VIL I hate to burst your bubble Leo but using SSL is no more secure these days than unencrypted connections. With modern poisoning programs (ie Cain, Wireshark) you can easily sniff https as well as http.
Of course you can sniff it, but actually decrypting the data within it is significantly harder, to the point of being practically impossible.
