Use the HTTPSocket events to your advantage. You are trying to force
a "Yield = False" while still taking advantage of the events. I
don't know why the HTTPSocket events are not firing unless the
"While...Wend" structure does not yield to BackgroundTasks like the
"For...Loop".
Thanks for your helpful answer, Phil. You are right -- the thread was
unnecessary (I used it only so the modal dialog would update, but if
I do that from the socket itself it works).
The, ahem, "trick" to getting the socket to work in the background
was to poll during the while/wend loop. This works:
while DownloadError = 0 and UserCancelled = false
mySocket.Poll
wend
