The code is posted at http://mindprod.com/products1.html#VERCHECK

When I get a round tuit, I will prune this back to a SSCCE.

I was hoping someone else was having the problem and had solved it or
had read a post somewhere about timeouts not behaving the way they use
to.

Oddly, when I run the program a second time, usually it completes the
read immediately and successfully. This may be a Windows 7 64-bit
problem. I have found rebooting Win 7 often clears up a multitude of
strange behaviours.

The problem is not reproducible, the nastiest kind.

Are you complaining about Sun or Apache?

Sounds more like a very slow DNS server and your immediate DNS server
having the name cached the second time.

Given that the code was explicit stated to be Apache, then
complaining to SUN would not make much sense.

He was not explicit. If you know that GetMethod and PostMethod are
unique to Apache, you could infer that. But Lothar did not state it
explicitly. The audience is wider than those who post. It always
helps to make things abundantly clear.
