I want to build a component that could
download files from HTTP url store them
in temporary internet files and always
check if file modified before download
(using etag and last modify).

I want to be able to use the component in
windows forms applications or NT Services.

I know that wininet.dll does something like
this, but does not work very well in NT service
and is internet explorer cache options dependent.
(I don't want a dependent component)

Can you point me the right way to achive my
objectives?

Thanks in advance

Click to expand...

Did you have a look at System.Net.HttpWebRequest and
System.Net.HttpWebResponse?
