Some of you may know about "https" vs. "http", but for those of who you do not, this link will be useful to understand the difference and implement a tool to make your gmail account more secure.

From here
Quote:
While users can already avoid this situation by manually forcing https:// mode (i.e., typing https:// instead of http:// when logging in), Google has added a setting to Gmail that lets users always use SSL. To do this, log in and click "Settings" at the top of your inbox. Then scroll down to the bottom and select the radio button next to "Always use https".

Google also now includes a notice at the bottom of your inbox that should tell you if your account is logged in at another location. Click the "details" button next to this message to see the Internet address of the other computer that's signed in, and then click the "Sign out all other sessions" to remotely sign out that other location.


edit-to put it in quotes.

Would there be any reason NOT to use HTTPS?

the best advice is to use the "logout" button when you are done using the site, as this will kill the cookie planted by the site.


That's good advice, i try and always log out of my Gmail accounts before I leave them, I have a few, and I object to the way Google seem to follow me around the internet.

All google accounts now set to use HTTPS...I can live with a longer processing time that I did not notice Smile

As for them following me around, I try not to do anything other than e-mail while logged into google due to their tracking cookies.
