You can tell if you are using a Web browser that supports SSL if a "key" or "padlock" icon appears in one of the lower corners of your screen (For example, when using Netscape you will see a key; when using Internet Explorer you will see a padlock). When you enter a secure page, the key is "unbroken" or the lock is closed. This means that your communications are now secure, encrypted, and cannot be read by non-authorized sources.
