Hi Wes,
thanks for the response,
i've been wondering myself where would be any difference,
but couldn't find any, from the server point of view.
Still the proxies logs are a real threat.
If some one else is reading it, don't think that POST is secure,
one can sniff anything from post.

Best greetings,
Paweł Wielgus.
