Does anybody have a wrapper / control that can be used with Visual Basic 6 that supports HTTPS?

I have a wrapper control that works well with HTTP, but a lot of websites (i.e. Facebook) are using HTTPS now - which makes it near impossible for me to code around?

Any ideas?

I can use web control, but it just isn't fast enough..

Thanks!

Assuming your wrapper uses the WebRequest class, you would need to delegate the HTTPS requests with RemoteCertificateValidationCallback (which is in System.Net.Security).

More info available here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...y.remotecertificatevalidationcallback.aspx#Y0

This is the VB6 section, not VB.NET.

Check out WodHttp. Easy to use and support Socks4/5 & HTTP proxies.

I used it for a couple of years when I would still code in VB6.

Cosigning wodhttp it's the best SSL solution on VB6. WebBrowsers are too resource heavy and lack good proxy/multisocket support
