Hi !!!

I have a VB.Net application that consumes an WebService. The problem is that
the HTTP address works fine, but it will change to an HTTPS address, and it
isn't working.

The weird thing is that I could add the WebReference and view the WSDL in my
browser (even in my iPaq Internet Explorer) without any problem, when I try
to consume the WebService I get the following error message: "The
ServicePointManager does not support proxies of https scheme."

What causes this error? How can I fix it or workaround?
Why I can add the WebReference and cannot consume the WebService?

Thanks in advance,
