I've merged your HttpProt changes into the latest version, and added the LocationChangeMaxCount feature to prevent endless relocation looping.
The component is backward compatible, when option httpoEnableContentCoding is not used, but does now need your HttpContCod.pas unit to be added to the ICS distribution. Using your HttpCCodGzip unit, while enabling compression adds the correct header to the protocol, suggesting it's all linked OK, unfortunately the HEAD request just gets a status of 0. = Connected to: web4 > HEAD /dunman/default.asp HTTP/1.0 > Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */* > Accept-Encoding: gzip > User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; ICS) > Host: web4 > Can Not Access URL: http://web4/dunman/default.asp, (0) I suspect that the encoding header should not be sent with the HEAD request, I'll try and change the code tomorrow.

Probably it is not in sync with latest beta but for evaluation it should not matter. To test it you can use the standard HttpTst demo. Uncompress the zip in the same dir and add HttpCCodGzip to the uses of one unit of the project. So you can test it without messing your ICS installation. If you don't add HttpCCodGzip then the gzip encoding will not be used and the component should work as usual. The header of HttpContCod.pas contains a brief description.
