leaving an encrypted page

their is an option to not show this message again on the poup box, its more of a warning to alert you that your on an encrypted page.

one other thing to check if its ticked, if you use IE, is to goto Tools > Internet Options > Advanced and tick "do not save encrypted pages to disk" > Apply

 

what the crux of the message is alerting you to is that say your on your Banking site and its encrypting data sent back and forth ( highlighted by the padlock icon with SSL128bit and above ) once you have finished with the encrypted page and that message pops up then yes it is possible someone could read or capture data as its not encrypted from that/this point on, which is why you need to do as much as possible to protect yourself... keep the OS, Antivirus, Antispyware upto date.

as for email.... not really but its possible if your infected with a trojan/keylogger/screencapture app etc

 

as when your are signing into your emails, the pages are encrypted ( is this online mail by any chance? *only curious* ) so you are as safe from anyone reading your emails as you can be.

this only means that IF you left the encrypted page and you were still sending emails their would be a possability that they could be read, but as that message only generally pops up as you leave or have finished with an encrypted page ( in your case emails ) then I highly doubt they would be able to be read.


TBH its a good thing if your worried about data security online that you have a message like that as it alerts you to when your safe* and when its not so safe^


*enter encrypted pages
^left encrypted pages

 

TBH = To Be Honest

Your user and password is being sent via encrypted data transfer so that cannot ( or will be harder to intercept ) be captured, Gmail is to a point scanned by Google anyways, hence the advertising.... so if your worried about security then use a ISPs email service rather than online mail.

Dont get too hung up on security if you are then stay off the net or dont send potentially sensitive emails, IF your keeping your PC secure using all methods of AntiVirus and AntiSpyware ( please read the guides in the spyware part of the forum ) then you are as protected as your going to be.

If you do want to send potentially sensitive materials or data through email then zip up a word doc and password it then attach it to an email.

 

The message is normal and by design, just a bit anoying if you have it set to alert you each time, yes very normal for some pages to be encrypted and some not, depends on the site and what information is needed/entered.

CCleaner and part of its cleaning process is to delete your cookies, cookies are what hold things like your User/Password for websites/fourms etc, if you dont what them to be deleted enter the Options menu of CCleaner and click cookies then you are given the option to protect/save certain cookies.

Yes on the ******** also saves someone watching over your shoulder remembering your password.
