Thanx for the replies. Actually I am a little bit confused about the sentence from Keith M. "If I were you, I would probably hunt down some source code although because of the memory limitations, it may not be easy to port directly(from windows source or unix)."
I can't understand this sentence, what ports (windows or unix). Could you please explain it a little bit more. I have the book "Applied Cryptography" and it contains the source code of DES and I am trying to understand it :-) What my application is, you have got buttons in my application like connection button and other button. when a user press on that button like say connection button it connect to the web server and get the page and display it on the viewer through "sysAppLaunchCmdGoToURL". Not what i want is the data which is sent from my prc to web server get encrypted. Now after reading all this I am sure y get some idea about my intentions. Now can this be possible and how. btw thanx for the reply. Waiting for the reply. Fawaz --- Keith Monahan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Your question is a little vague.
