Hi there!
I made the WebClient to work ok. I'm just wandering if there is some class
that allow me to comunicate with my server, sockets one, that I designed,
from a activex in html without any security issue?

The WebClient need a header to work, and I whould like to skip that to
minimise the trafic...and send only what I need on the client.
I'm not sure if using sockets on the client mashine dont need some special
security

The WebClient implements the http protocol, so yes it requires that
headers be sent/recieved. If you need a secure socket connection, then
you may want to look into SSL. For that, you may want to consider a 3rd
party solution.
 
Hi Tom,

No, I'm not looking for SSL , only to design a client that dont raise any
security exception on a client machine, so the client dont need to set
permisions for the assambly to run.

Thanks, Crirus
