Tony,
are you sure that this is not https issue?
Check this kb:

I found that several https sites require 128 bit connection,
so i choose to use M$ XML component.
It's pretty simple tough, here's the example:
<cfobject action="Create" name="objSrvHTTP" class="MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP">
<cfset dummy=objSrvHTTP.open("POST","#url#",false)>
<cfset dummy=objSrvHTTP.send("#xmldoc#")>
And the result is:
objSrvHTTP.responsetext ~ similar to cfhttp.filecontent
objSrvHTTP.Status ~ similar to cfhttp.statuscode
Regards,
Rizal
