I was checking my account info in Paypal's site when the screen jumped. It then said I hadn't added a new e-mail address (I wasn't trying to). I looked up at the browser and saw the URL changed from https://paypal to http://paypal.

I logged out. Then I logged back in and retraced my keystrokes to see if the URL looked different, but it stayed https...

Just thought I mention it so you guys would be on the alert.

Hey, it just happened again! After I logged out, the screen jumped. I got the log-in screen that looked different. In the browser, it changed from https to http again.

I left Paypal. Clicked on Paypal in "My Favorites", and it brought up the log-in screen with https (a whole different look).

When you first go to paypal to log in you are not in a secured area so it will read http, but when you log in, it turns to a secure area and becomes https. Then when you log out it becomes an unsecured area again and returns to the http address. Does that help? It's confusing.

I was just using PayPal with no problems at all, it worked the same as always.

Maybe clear your cache and try again?

I just brought up the log-in screen again, and it reads https.
