Not such method <s>...


>lnStatus = loWWIPStuff.HTTPConnect( "http://mskeels:myfirewallpass@www.hotmail.com/")

This is your problem. You need to pass only a domain
name, not a path.

lowwIPStuff.HTTPConnect("www.west-wind.com")

Not sure how this works with the firewall stuff, but
you can't use HTTP:// and any of the routing stuff
that the command line parser normally performs.

You should use nConnectType =3 which should read
your proxy settings from the registry.
