I'm looking for a wrapper shich sits in a server port and
converts HTTPS protocol to a HTTP protocol for my application.

I'm looking for a way to use Stunnel (http://stunnel.mirt.net/)
or something similar to secure VFP HTTP port server.

>You're not going to be able to use a certificate or HTTP in this situation then. The only other thing I can think of is to encrypt your data with the crypto API, but you'd have to be able to unencrypt it on the client side then, and IE doesn't understand it, so this wouldn't meet your requirements.
