If you recall a while back I suggested you (ok outright told you to) turn on the secure feature of Facebook that adds the s to http: when you are on Facebook. Well Twitter has added the same level of security to protect its users and it is easy to turn on.
Directions
Go to http://twitter.com/settings/account, scroll down and look for HTTPS Only. Click on the box. Click Save. Enter your password. All set.
See, told you it was easy.
Alternate Directions
If you prefer, you may access the feature as follows:
Go to twitter.com
Log in to your Account
Click on Profile
Click on Edit your Profile
Scroll down to the bottom.
Click on the box for Always use HTTPS.
Click Save. Enter your password as requested.
That’s it. Your Twitter account is now less likely to be hacked.
