Hi JimA
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
My personal preferences whether using WSA or not is to never carry out any of these types of transactions. But please take a look at the previous thread on the subject which includes some very sage advice (in the 2nd post) from one of our gurus ?.

Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
 
? is correct WSA it not enough at Wi-Fi Hot Spots especially if your doing any buying and or banking  online you need a good VPN service and in the thread Baldrick pointed to I'm using PureVPN now and there are many other very good ones! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network
 
Thanks,
