HTTPS is a protocol typically used by websites offering users a service, and keeps third parties from intercepting sensitive information, such as passwords and banking information. However, there is still a lot of public information available on these sites – most notably, the login pages themselves. It’s this public content that we are making available through MSN Search, so that users can better locate the services they need.”
