Are your passwords, credit card accounts and email vulnerable by visiting an unsecured site if you are just looking at the site? i.e. not entering any such info.

When you visit an unsecured website, your passwords, credit card accounts, and email accounts are generally not at risk if you are just looking at the site and not entering any such information. However, there are still some risks to consider.

For example, an unsecured website may be vulnerable to attacks that could compromise your computer or mobile device. Hackers may use these attacks to install malware on your device, steal personal information, or gain unauthorized access to your accounts.

Additionally, some unsecured websites may use tracking technologies to monitor your online activities and collect data about you. This data may be sold to third-party advertisers or used for other purposes without your knowledge or consent.

To protect yourself when browsing the web, it's important to use a secure browser, keep your software and operating system up-to-date, and use a reliable antivirus program. You should also avoid clicking on links or downloading files from untrusted sources, and be cautious when sharing personal information online. Finally, you should always use strong and unique passwords for your accounts and enable two-factor authentication whenever possible.

Also best is not to enable auto-fill, either for logins or for other saved form data including credit card and address data.
