NOT !!!
DO NOT use your DEBIT CARD!
1. It may not be insured in case of fraud.
2. If they do make good on it(your bank), it will be after the whole thing is settled.
3. Web is secure only if:
If you have no snoopers
If your merchant has good server/sense
Example: all order fillers on AMAZON are said to have access to CC#.. but it is hearsay at this time. Are they all bonded???
I buy online. I use only 1 "certain" card.
I buy online all the time.. if not broke. [no female shoppping commments, plz.]
I have a small card which will accept a large payment over the phone and post the funds within 3 days to be used. Otherwise I keep the available credit on this card pretty small.
Use a credit card because:
1. They are generally insured against fraud. If you get stung, they will make good on it before it all falls out in investigagions/court. This is especially important if you stung for a lot of money,
and important if investigaions take a long time...
If you are really concerned, just call the 1-800 number, and give your order over the phone, just don't use a cell phone.

Life... stay tuned: "It's always changing while it stays the same."
