hey joe!
this is abhiexx again!...i don't know when u started this thread...but looks like u were facing the same trouble i faced with my code...only difference...is i was coding in VC++.
The reference i used for my class design was LW.Believe me for a newbie i was impressed...i did not see any c++ code...cause that might have spoilt my originality.(if i had any in the first place that is)

I know a bit bout VB6.maybe i can help u out in someways.....i will give u what i coded in VC++....well the client works bulletproof..
the server's giving me problems...i got a few other ideas....porting this to other platforms and stuff..

well i was actually doing this for my university project....well i did complete half the part...but i am totally hooked..i want to go into higher level stuff...and develop a really good ....open source...servant...with multisegmented downloads and the works..
