I'm not sure about the 'public' release, but we have used the ssl components
a lot with D6. But this was in the time that the ssl components where not
open-source.

Hi Arno
I think that I've hit a show stopper!
The link you gave me includes the comment "SSL option requires at
least Delphi 7 or C++Builder 2006. " - but I'm running Delphi 6!!!
Is any way to run SSL with Delphi 6?
I'm pretty sure it was possible to compile ICS v5 + SSL with D6 as well.
Most likely just a few changes were required, but I cannot test this
since I do not own Delphi 6.
If not, I'm looking at the time
and cost of upgrading my app to Delphi version X (whatever version I
should go to?) + worrying about all the 3-party components that may or
may not have current versions ...
If you do not want to upgrade your applications to support Unicode
Delphi 2007 was first choice, it's the last available ANSI compiler and
is well supported by most third parties.
BUT on www.overbyte.be it says ...
[ Download the latest ICS-V5 Distribution ]
Support all Delphi 1-2007 and BCB versions 1-6
Now with ICS-SSL for free. Download the required files.
... Which implies that I can use D6 - so maybe not a show stopper.
From memory this version was buggy, my fixes never made it into the
published ZIP, it was IMO easier to port latest ICS-SSL v5 available
at the wiki site to Delphi 6.
