Lycos Webmail offers a checkbox named "SSL LOGIN" which let you assume a secure
transfer of your credentials - it's only pretended! Repeatedly sniffs shows
account and password in cleartext - no https-packet came across...
The interesting part of the relating http-packet:
...
login=dasbinich&hiddenlogin=Nutzername&hiddenpassword=******&password=geheim000&ssl=on
HTTP/1.0 302 Found

...and so on. Funny, isn't it? Or poor!
