This is a non-trivial example, because a URL to download a file may be one-shot, require cookies or a specific referrer. You can't just say "download this url" but "download this url with these headers, this cookie collection, this referrer and anything else relevant". This sort of complexity is very common when designing session wide (I hope you didn't mean system wide!) daemons. Ross -- Intel Open Source Technology Centre http://oss.intel.com/
