WebRequest.GetResponse()

[mikker_123]

class Class1 { [STAThread] static void Main(string[] args) { WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com"); // hangs here WebResponse resp = req.GetResponse(); resp.Close(); } } Question is simple -> how come my code hangs on second line? I tried it on two computers (.NET 1.1) and it won't work. After some time I get WebException (The operation has timed-out). Any help is greatly appreciated.

Use a HttpWebRequest to start with: HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com"); --- b { font-weight: normal; }
