Cheers, Dave, for the info.

I actually know all about what SSL does etc. Maybe I worded the question 
wrong :-s

Maybe what I need to know lies a little deeper. I want to know that when a 
client machine communicates with a server, out of what port does this 
information travel from the clients machine.

And also, if a client and server communicate via SSL, is the data transferred 
in a secure state via the same port that data is normally sent, or is the 
data transferred through a separate port??

Cheers all.
