accepting cookies with winsock

Hi,

Im trying to use winsock to login to a site but the response i get from the site is "your browser is not accepting cookies".

Is there a way I can make winsock accept cookies ?

Thanks.

Cookies and Winsock are unrelated! Check out this link to see how HTTP and cookies work: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/

I'm always puzzled that people try to work at the Winsock level when VB6 has such a range of HTTP components available to handle the details.

But there is a sort of "kids' guide" to cookies at http://www.cookiecentral.com/faq/ that might help give you a quick start before working through the HTTP RFCs.

Thanks, the reason I want to work with winsock is because of the speed. Ive used various pieces of software for doing automated tasks e.g signing upto sites, filling in forms etc and the ones that use winsock are so much quicker.
