Default Credit Card Transactions Over Wireless?
I am new to this wireless thing. My first laptop came home with me last week.

Is it safe to make purchases from secure sites using the wireless connection with the laptop?

Thank You

Yes, SSL (https) means that your transactions between your laptop and the server will be encrypted. These are very hard to capture/decrypt by a third party.
