Multiple file download using WebClient

[Ole Hanson]

Hi

It seems to be virtually impossible to perform a download of more than 2
files at the time from any website?
The same limitation seems to be put on IE, if I'm using that as Client.

I want to create a simple download manager, that can perform mayby 25
downloads at the same time. What presents the limitation? The WebClient
class or the server in the other end?

I would suggest using net sockets and not the webclient. You also need to
make the code asynchronous. Add threading in and your all set.

Thanks for the feedback.
For what reason would you prefer raw sockets?
I agree on the threading; that was actually handled by the WebClient's async
download methods, but anyways...
