Server Perfromance Advisor

I am using Server Perfromance Advisor V2 to monitor System and Active

Directory Perfromance. It allows me to use a network share to transfer data

for reporting. It requires an account with admin level permissions to do

this. Can anyone tell me if this negotiates securely or if I need to find

some way to run it over SSL? It seems odd that it requires an ID and password

for an admin level account but doesn't say how to secure this if you intend

to use them. Any advice on SPA would be usefull.
