    Angry Sniffer woos....

    My site is having a problem with an individual retrieving the packets sent to and from my site and getting password and other information from them, is the any way to stop them getting the info, I've looked into certificates but their a tad on the expensive side for the size of my site.

    Does anyone have any other alternatives...

    Thanks in advanced

    Create your own. Yeah it's not "certified" but you can announce it to your users as encrypted. One possible side effect is that it will pop up when they first go to the site (and maybe even each additional time). Search around for creating your own ssl cert. Cheers.
