I have a site where users login and manage a shop.  Using an SSL connection for the entire shop administration would be overkill.  Would it be reasonably secure simply to have a regular connection but encrypt only the the sensitive information using HTTP_Encrypt or something of that nature?

Actually, I have been running some tests on this.  SSL works fine everywhere.  In fact, when uploading large images (18MB), there seems to be very little difference in upload speed between HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP.  I just thought I would mention this in case it helps somebody out.
