Re: WebRequest times out...but only 3rd time and on...

Thanks Jon, that was it. As I wasn't putting it into a reponse object I
couldn't see it, but now it works great.
System.Net.WebResponse resp = req.GetResponse();
resp.Close();

a couple of variables?

I don't have time to look at the rest of your code in detail at the
minute, but I believe the problem is that you're not disposing of the
WebResponse. If you do, you should notice everything being fine. .NET
is happy to have two connections up at a time, but your existing
responses are "hogging" the connections it's made.
