[edit] Not just a website

This article should not just be about the website; it should also be about the add-ons themselves. 69.87.203.136 14:46, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Secure?

What is a "secure" website? Just because data transferred between the user and the server is encrypted doesn't make the website "secure." I have removed the "secure" description - wikipedia doesn't really need to get into defining whether websites are secure or not. Cameron 17:17, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Websites that have secured connections are often referred to as 'secure websites', though I agree that isn't strictly accurate. Also, cryptography isn't just about encryption, it's about authentication, too. Most people won't care if someone sees what extensions they're installing, but they do (or should) care if someone can alter software while in transit.

For the purpose of this article, it probably doesn't matter, as anyone who cares can see that the connection is secured themselves. Jobarts^-Talk 21:20, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
