Implementing Secure Web Browsing

A few days back I implemented the secure browsing protocol provided by the Hosting Service Provider. It is a fairly basic implementation covering the MyPaipoBoards.org website and forums. In simple terms it provides AES 256 bit encryption which is fairly decent.

The "basic" part, in my words, if you log-in with https://mypaipoboards.org/ it will provide encrypted browsing on the home page and the links internal to the website (but not to website links outside of MyPaipoBoards). However, if you access the MyPaipoBoards website or forum using a URL without the "s" in https:// you will be accessing the website in an non-encrypted manner (although by clicking on some links such as the header links which have been hard-coded for https you will then enter the encrypted sphere). Lots of fun ain't it?

Please let me know if you encounter any issues related to https on the site.

Update your links to MyPaipoBoards to include the "s" in https://

Thanks and enjoy!
