Recpatcha fails to validate in 'https' only outbound traffic.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Block all http outbound traffic to google in the proxy server.
2. Enable 'https' outbound traffic to google in the proxy server.
3. After reCaptcha control loads, enter the recaptcha text and validate. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
If the entered reCaptcha value matches, 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows Server 2008 R2 / ASP.NET reCaptcha Plugin

Please provide any additional information below.

Path : svn/ trunk/ recaptcha-plugins/ dotnet/ library/

Issue facing : RecaptchaValidator.cs - verifyurl is hardcoded to use only http. 
It should have been handled the same way as 'RecaptchaControl.cs'.

Details
-------
private const string VerifyUrl = "http://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/verify";

HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(VerifyUrl);          
   request.ProtocolVersion = HttpVersion.Version10;

Google does not specify explicitly what kind of protocol it supports for the 
verify endpoint. Based on the documentation, only HTTP is supported.

Closing this issue as WontFix.
