FW: Secure HTTP

I did a simelar thing and used it to get around my school's filtering
system. I'd wager he's trying to do something like this ;)

Unfortuatly, what Julian says is correct, you'll need to bounce the
connection through another server with stunnel forwarding the (now
encrypted) connections back to your gateway. Which isn't too bad, all
you need a halfway decent shell account (or just get a damn server)
that'll allow backgroup procs.

Just my 2 pence.

If the sites you are visiting don't support encryption, you are 
still going to end up with data in clear-text on the wire.


Sure.  It depends on who and what he is worried about.
