    simulate http request

    I wrote a program that, using a webbrowser, connecting to a specific site every 5 minuets. The site is on ssl with secureID security.
    Is there a way to connect the site without displaying the html page? I mean something that simulate a browser http request??
    This program should run all the time so it should be very light.
    Thanks.

    Sample code

    Go to www.freevbcode.com

    In the search box, type "http server". A single entry should be returned that says "http server" for a description. Download that source, and in the .BAS file that has the HTTP protocols (it's called HTTPDeclares or something similar), there's a sample HTTP request header. Just use that!

    Forgot to mention...

    The code above is used with a WinSock control, so just add one to your project
