https://www.horse-shop.com/ uses Netscape Enterprise server version 2.0a for
the SSL (secure socket layer) functionality of the site. the level of
encryption is browser dependant. if you are using the "domestic" version of
netscape or internet explorer, i wouldn't worry. if you are using the
"export" version of either of those browsers, i would worry (but no more than
i would worry about a fax or phone call).

does this answer your question?

i guess i should also take this time to plug horse-shop.com... if any vendors
are interested in peddling their wares on horse-shop, send a piece of mail
to step@endurance.net or denisek@fsr.com
