winsock stub error on close after calling idHTTP.get

[Michael Strong]

On closing my application after doing one or more gets using idHTTP.get it
throws this exception:

Error on call Winsock2 library function shutdown: Either the application has
not called WSAStartup, or WSAStartup failed.

I checked if winsock2loaded and its true before the get. I tried calling
WSAStartup and WSACleanup around the get as well, but nothing has worked so
far.

If I run the http get code in a simple application with nothing else it
works without a problem. So there is some other component or code causing a
conflict. I have removed everything I can see that might be related to
winsock.

Anyone got any ideas on where to look next?

TIA,
Michael

Fixed it: idHTTP.disconnect was not being called.

It would be good to have a demo on this component. I couldn't find one
anywhere.
