This is my first release so please be gentle but would appreciate some feed back.
After seeing previous versions use the WebBrowser control i decided to modifie my Http Class. I am no expert when dealing with the HttpWebRequest Class but spent quite a lot of time over the last two years trying to become more accustom using it. The UI is not much to look at currently and lack's many options. Will be working on this next. Tested on XP only

For obvious reason's i have not done any real bug testing. But thank you Niya for pointing on an issue with Logging out on invalid credentials. Hopefully fixed now. So please point out any Bugs for future releases.
C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

Always good to know. This wed nevrt meant to be used as software. Just releasing the post data class. Currently slowly turning it into a real application

Il look into the text, i would guess as niya did to be the same.
I know nothing about this stuff.
In an app where I use WebClient to download a page I was getting back some weird text for a couple chars, firefox says its using "UTF-8", found suggestion to set encoding to UTF8, and that fixed it!
While viewing this site FF shows char encoding = windows-1252.
So my only guess is to change your code to include the Encoding setting as well to match this site,, something like...
Code:
Using resposeStream As Stream = controlResponse.GetResponseStream()
Using resposeReader As New StreamReader(resposeStream, System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252))
controlSource = resposeReader.ReadToEnd()
End Using
End Using
But I have no idea how to even test this, my rep saver seems to still work, all normal text is still normal, but for example "Españolita" isn't on my reps page here any more so not sure its going to fix that or not
Thanks again!

I'm not going to sit here and say i know the answer. How ever iv seen windows-1252 as reported "latin". and latin has some bad results. Im going to say is where do you stop or care. Browsers have to. I'l finish off this bit i suggested for you to see if you like then il look at the unicodes.

Have you even read the exception details? Debugging is a major par of programming. A Null reference is stupidly easy to track down.
Fair response. However, given that it ran on my PC and on N1nj4styl3's PC without throwing an exception yet throws the exception on his, I think it warrants some attention by you. Of course, it would be infinitely more helpful if he investigated it himself and provided more information so you can fix this potential incompatibility. Remember, when you post code for someone to examine or use, you're doing so with the implicit admission of its correctness.

Well I don't like to brag but your i7 has a benchmark of 3884 but my i5-2500 (3.3 Ghz up to 3.9 Ghz 6MB) has 6218 and 8 GB of ram is not that impresive, so to put in perspective there are cpus that have up to 13000 benchmark and you can put up to 64 Gb of ram on a user's pc, and you know I don't want to sound like an idiot but XP??? Cmon!!!
PS: Most sites have different benchmarks so here is the site I recommend:
i7-http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?...0U+%40+1.80GHz
i5-http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?...00+%40+3.30GHz
PPS: If you need help getting any version of windows just pm me
EDIT: If you paid $1600 on the lenovo laptop you could of just paid $600 more and got a razer blade: http://www.razerzone.com/store/razer-blade, that has nvidia gtx 870m the best gpu money can buy a much better cpu, a bigger display with the same resolution and its better looking
