Yeah, I tried it.  It connects and then the program just sits there like it is waiting on something.

Not something I HAVE to have.

If you give me the page you are trying to reach than I'll play when I get time.

That sends your request to the server.  So the server responded you didn't send a valid request.

Which means either the server doesn't exits, the path to the document is wrong, or the sever doesn't support a GET of that file type.

Google it

It is a Windows function, the very first link is the Microsoft documentation for it.
