To be perfectly honest, even SSL isn't going to protect people from themselves. Their passwords will still be stolen - keyloggers. I'm going to open up a new anti-keylogger in the near future, but it only works on IE. For complete protection, you need serious solutions. SSL is only a partial solution. Encryption can't protect against keyloggers - which are the most effective way to get passwords, credit card numbers, etc.

I'll post back when the anti-keylogger is available.

How will it prevent key logging whilst letting people work normally with their PC's?

you really can't stop a keylogger... the only way would be to shut down the program (the most practical), except that there is hundreds of keyloggers available each with different process names, the other solution would be to create a complicated hardware encryption device that would be attached to the keyboard and encrypt the keys going in and out of the computer... that would be highly ineffective because i doubt the ms designers would want to build a keyboard decryption protocol into their kernel.
