Ray Romeo (idiot savant of wagglepop.com) requires credit card authorization for new members. One of the biggest problems with his authorization system is that he asks for credit card info on a NON-SSL encrypted page!

This is a serious privacy hazard, and I would not register on wagglepop.com for this sole reason alone! Could Ray actually allow this, or is this some kind of scam he's running? Most sites today even encrypt your password so that it can't be lifted by sniffing the FORM data, but Ray doesn't mind giving your credit card information to anybody sniffing for this type of traffic!

Ray claims the issue is fixed in a super secret message thread, but unsecure registration pages still exist!

Brilliant!
