For the protection of our customers, we use Verisign to provide a secure server for those services that contain confidential information. This information is encrypted using the Secure Socket Layer Protocol (SSL), so that only the intended recipient should be able to decipher messages addressed to them. This will significantly improve security of data provided by or for members.
Browser Requirements In order for our secure service to be used, your browser must support SSL. If you connect to the Internet through a proxy server or firewall, these must also support SSL. Common browsers that support SSL are:
Other browsers may also support secure transactions. Please see your browser’s documentation for details. If you are unsure, you may click on the link below to test your browser and proxy server configuration. If you do not receive a response from our server then unfortunately you will also be unable to access our secure services.
To assist in our efforts at resolving any problems you may have, please consult your ISP to ensure that your proxy server allows SSL transport before contacting us.
If your ISP indicates that you should be able to access SSL encoded sites and are using a browser that supports SSL, but are still having problems, please call us on 131 538, so we may investigate further.
Should you require further information about secure communications on the Internet and SSL, please look at the general resources provided by Netscape and Microsoft.
