And how to do that on Windows? I DID try it on this F20 notebook, and of course it worked just fine. That was why I really suspected Windows TLS functions. Then when I was trying again, I caught a little pop up in the system tray saying how the nanny software was blocking the bad program that was trying to do https to port 995... I really should be so harsh about the nanny software. It DOES protect a lot of families from content they do not want to see. Just that the defaults no longer match where we want internet privacy to go.
