What operating system? What web browser? Do you have a separate
account on that computer that no one else has access to?

Also, it bears mentioning the obvious that just because a given web
site has an SSL certificate, and you're seeing one that is attributed
to them, doesn't mean your activities are safe and secure and that the
information you provide them won't be cracked by other means.
