As I suspected, the hall-of-shame posted on Amir's site may be a bit misguided since these pages do in-fact submit HTTPS (SSL) logins.
the subject has been discussed about three months ago. Please check the list archives: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/107/402824/30/0/threaded The problem with those pages is not that login information is sent unencrypted (which it isn't), but that the login form is unauthenticated, which means it could as well be a phishing site - the user has no way to tell the difference.
