My college has implemented SSL across campus. To get to the Internet, you have to visit a secure web page, log in to a firewall, and are then allowed network access. (They have not implented wireless security, opting instead for the firewall approach.)

Trying to access that web page gets an "Error: SSL handshake" message from Netfront. However, SSL was implemented by M$ in an encryption Pack in Windows Mobile 2003SE. To get around the problem, I first have to visit the web page in PIE, log in, then close PIE and launch Netfront to browse.

This is obviously a PITA. Does anyone know how to get Netfront to work in this situation? I've posted on their support forums and have gotten no response. Thanks in advance...
