Thanks for the comment Irv. Technically, SecureNet Xtra is not built to go around firewall but more for Proxy servers (Firewall is playing at the TCP/IP level, Proxy server is acting at HTTP level). Nonetheless, it may help Antoine for one reason : SecureNet Xtra is using high level libraries (Wininet on windows and URLAccess manager on the Mac) where NetLingo is built on top of low level libraries (Winsock on Windows and OpenTransport on the Mac).
Ultimately, using SecureNet Xtra, you are almost certain that you will get same result than in your browser (especially true for IE on Windows).
