I may be wrong, however I think I recall that the THTTPCli sent entire POST-data even though authentication was what the server expected. That sounds, at least, not very efficient and the server might treat this as an DOS-attempt. I'm no expert in HTTP and the THttpCli, so this behaviour of THttpCli might be completely correct. -- Arno Garrels -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
