You read correctly, it's indeed the end of an era. he.net has changed there web site.

Manual FSCK - Out

never heard of em........but good to see their level of security on the order forms....

They're big... I think.

About time they got a site though. They still could do a better job :eek:

Maybe they're going for a "Keep It Simple Look". That order form does need some SSL though.

Wow! They've had their old page for a good 6+ years.

Not much of an improvment. At least I know what they offer now.

The form is submitted to an https url. So, technically there's no problem but they should have put the https order form:
https://www.he.net/order.html

Taz - Oh Okay, I didn't submit the form so I didn't catch that.

much better than the old design!

I have to agree, this is truly the end of an era. It's making a grown man cry. :) :bawling:

Well... there isn't a problem as long as everyone verifies that the data is being submitted to the right (secure) location.

As it is, someone could substitute a different order form which submitted its contents insecurely, and (almost) nobody would notice until too late.

Coincidentally, I interviewed Sommer Farrin, who is the HE marketing/pr person, today and I mentioned this thread and the order form problem. They have corrected it.
