Very interesting! Not exactly practical though.
I need to do more research on this but I wonder if it's possible to wrap the packets up in some sort of encryption for transmission then unencrypt itself once it senses the syn/ack during the 3 way handshake with the server.
(New post to make clarity understood)You could VPN out to a remote computer (i.e. Proxy server), the user name and password (along with every thing else) would be completely unreadable, but that only lasts until the connection leaves the remote host. So while some one sniffing your connection won't be able to see it, any one sniffing your remote hosts connection will.

I've recently created a profile at myspace.com and noticed usernames and passwordsa are transmitted in clear text. Is there any way to conceal or encrypt my credentials from possible sniffers?
How to encrypt myspace.com usernames and passwords?

Here's an interesting way to do it from a friend's suggestion;
1. Set up a shell account on a trusted server
2. Download Putty {assuming it's Windoze for you}

3. Set up a Putty profile that will dynamically forward a
given port - let's say localhost:1337, save the session, and
open it.
4. Download FoxyProxy, for Firefox:

5. Configure FoxyProxy to use a SOCKS 5 proxy for Myspace
and whatever other websites you desire. It sounds more
complex than it is.
6. Surf.
