You can now use the https protocol to access YWS! That is:

What is HTTPS?

Wikipedia wrote:Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is a communications protocol for secure communication over a computer network, with especially wide deployment on the Internet.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Secure

Under https, all information sent between you and the website is encrypted. This is vital for things like submitting credit card information when purchasing items on Amazon, but it's also useful when you submit things like your username and password when logging onto a site like YWS.
