>I am writing a program that interact with a web site. I send xmlhttp request to the website and need to use some type of encryption that will work with FoxPro, ASP (VB Script), and windows CE. Does anyone know of a basic encryption that I could use that will not require me to use an activex object. I would like to use some type of code native to FoxPro and will be easy to port to VB.

Is the Web server Windows-based or could it be something else? One option in Windows is to use the CryptoAPI. Alex Feldstein wrote an article about it but it is now available only to premier DevX members.

If you simply want to protect your information during transfer, have you investigated SSL (i.e. https)?
