David,
Hi. Is there any reason why you cannot use a web server for this? If IIS is not your cup of tea then try WebSite. In any case, if you must reinvent the wheel, I would strongly suggest you use one of the 3rd party TCP/IP libraries, such as IMS (Internet Mail Suite).
The other thought is when do you close the socket? Bear in mind that the sockets are buffered, so the SendStream call may return before all data is sent. If you then try to close the socket, it may abort the data stream (depends on socket settings). The other thing to note is after call ing SendStream, the stream object belongs to the socket - you should not free the stream. What does SendStream return?
Hope this helps,
Dennis.
