SECURITY

To maximize by IE 5.01, Netscape Communicator 4.7 and later browsers. Older browsers will still create a secure SSL connection at 40, 56 or 128 bits depending on the precise browser version. For more information on browser compatibility please go here.

Encryption is a means of scrambling information for transmission, in this case, between your PC and our web site. Information that is encrypted (scrambled) at one end is decrypted (descrambled) upon receipt at the other end. 128-bit encryption is the strongest, most secure form of encryption that is generally available in Internet browsers today. 40-bit encryption is the basic minimum standard that is prevalent in most browser products. Your browser probably uses 40-bit encryption unless you have specifically obtained 128-bit encryption.

Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer with 128-bit encryption can be downloaded by clicking on their respective icons.
