Well, thanks joe that reply was really useful. I am kind of new to jabber development, so I am using JabberCOM DLL for all the XMPP related stuff. I am not sure if I can do the starttls with it.
Can you suggest some way of doing this with may be some open source library or something? But, I remember reading in the XMPP specs that "starttls" is supposed to be done by server first (correct me if I am wrong).

Thanks Norman. Does this mean that I should connect to talk.google.com but send the above stream?
Should switch from JabberCOM to some other library or DLL? My requirements are that I am doing development in windows and specifically I need a C++ based library/DLL with source code. Gloox is out of the question as it is yet to bring out a stable version for windows.
Can anybody help me in this regard??? Others too please take a look into my previous posts and tell me if I can still salvage something with my existing setup.
Thanks and Cheers,
