Google Email Security
Google has been asked to explain why it is not making its Gmail e-mail service more secure.
In an open letter to Google boss Eric Schmidt, security experts, lawyers, and privacy advocates ask why Gmail users are “needlessly” being put at risk.
The 38 signatories want Google to start using the secure version of the HTTP protocol to protect Gmail users.
In response, Google said it was considering trials of the secure system with a select group of users.
Secure session
“As more of us end up using insecure internet access – such as wi-fi in coffee shops, libraries, and so forth – there’s a real risk of session hijacking,” said Ben Edelman, a signatory of the letter and assistant professor at Harvard Business School.
When users sign on to Gmail, their login name and password are encrypted as the data passes back and forth using the secure version of HTTP known as HTTPS.

The new system Adgitize has just went through probably its hardest week yet after a problem with the database caused the website system to be unavailable from the 23rd.
Lucky for us they are here for the long run and they worked through their issues and even managed to fix the system ahead of their time. We were told February 5th and the site was back online just before February 1st.
I highly recommend that anyone joins this as it really is a great system. Also if you do join I reccomend advertising with them, I do and its a really great cost effective way of advertising.
You notice a difference when their server goes down I lost alot of new visitors to the site.
Join using the link in my header.
