Re: Securing socket communications

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Thanks for your reply David.
This means that with every installation of my server, i will have to install
IIS,
and possibly a certificate.
I guess i can use IIS only in the login phase, and send back a secret key,
which
will be used to encrypt further socket communications.
But i will use this option only as a last resort.
Regards,
Sharon.
