How to redirect https to http without using ssl certificate on localhost

i have my own http/s server and installed microsoft layered service provider(i can modify data, that browser send) on localhost.

So my question is. How teoreticaly can i redirect, the browser using port 443(https) to port 80(http) without need of ssl handshake. I need to get the data unencrypted, thats the reason. I really dont want to buy/use/generete ssl certificate! I only need it on localhost, so no dirty work :)

While there are ways to do this without a certificate (DH-ANON cipher suites), basically no web browser supports DH-ANON, so it won't work. The easier way is to just create your own self-signed certificate (at least you don't have to buy it). This tells you how to do that.
