Winsock Encryption

[nabbster]

Hi guys

i have seen lots of topics on this but i cant find a direct answer to my question so here goes.
i will sending data to a server including a logon and password, is this data by default encoded? or do i need to encode it?. if i need to encode it does that mean i have to set a deryption in place on the remote server or is the data just encoded whilst in transit - till it reaches its destination?.

thanks in advance

Data being sent across Winsock isn't encoded unless you encode it yourself.

There's some good encryption code around the forums and other sites. Just use the same encryption/decryption code in both the client and server. So each end can encrypt and decrypt the data.

k well it is not my server so i cant do that so i suppose it will be unencrypted
