MySpace Internet Chat Room Monitor

[johnmc33]

Hi,

I am writing an application to monitor my children's Myspace.com Internet Chat Room activity. I have written a Layered Service Provider and am checking info coming back from the chat room.

What I am seeing is that the chat session data coming back unencrypted on port 443 ? .. the SSL port ... this has kinda thrown me a bit ...

Does anyone have any reasons why this port would being used ? It always seems to be the one I get the chat room data on, will this always be the case ? I dont know. anyone else have similar experiences ?

Any info greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

John.

My daughter uses AIM which also is on port 443. I think because she is logged on to a https:// website.

Hey,

If you can ge this to work, I'm interested in your software, I have wanted to do this before but had no programming experience. This port is designed to stop you from doing what your trying to do.

Port 443

Name: https

Purpose: http protocol over TLS/SSL

Description:
This port is used for secure web browser communication. Data transferred across such connections are highly resistant to eavesdropping and interception. Moreover, the identity of the remotely connected server can be verified with significant confidence. Web servers offering to accept and establish secure connections listen on this port for connections from web browsers desiring strong communication security.

Once established, web browsers inform their users of these secured connections by displaying an icon — a padlock, an unbroken key, etc. — in the status region of their window.

Let us know,

Brett

Hi guys,

This is working now. I am able to monitor MySpace Chat Rooms and MySpace IM Client, because although they send on the SSL port (443) they are not encrypting.
