[access-uk] Re: Secure buying OnLine

Hi Wendy,
 
If you have Internet Explorer 7, then you will know a secure page.  IE 7
will say "Security Report" when you go onto a secure web page, at least it
does with Window-Eyes.
 
All the best
 
Steve

The clue is in the URL.  When you get a security prompt that you are going
onto a secure page, press ok, and when the page has loaded press alt D to go
to the address bar.  Instead of HTTP it should read HTTPS at the beginning.
This S means secure.  Hope that helps.  I am sure the padlock would not show
up on any screenreader.

Hello

 

I have tended to use Amazon or well known sites for security issues when
buying on the web. Is there any security symbol to look out for which can be
identified by screenreaders. I seem to remember reference to a padlock but
would this ordinarily be picked up.

 

Any comments would be appreciated.
