Hi James;
 Your best bet is to use a browser tool like TamperData for FireFox.  Then
you can automatically filter out other network noise and concentrate on the

 Not sure of any apps that do posts.

packet analysis for a while, what tool would you recommend for
Windows?

Also, are there any applications such as wget that would support
multipart posts?
