Are the batteries protected or unprotected?

I don’t know. Some friends of mine tell this battery is not protected, some others tell me yes, it is protected. I have just purchased them here: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/genuine-panasonic-18650-3100mah-rechargeable-battery-with-protection-board-green-pair-121444?item=6 In your opinion is it protected?

I did review it and it has protection.
