.net Equivalent of MSXML2.XMLHTTP40
<p>I am working on converting a VB6 app into C# app.
Here what i need to do</p>

<pre><code>Public Function SendData(sUsername as string ,sPassword as string, url as string , message as string ) As Boolean

Dim XMLHttpRequest   As MSXML2.XMLHTTP40
Set XMLHttpRequest = New MSXML2.XMLHTTP40

XMLHttpRequest.Open "GET", g_SonyFeedURL, True, sUsername, sPassword   
XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader "Synchronous", "False"
XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "text/xml"
XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader "Accept-Language", "en-US"
dtStart = Now
XMLHttpRequest.send
Do While XMLHttpRequest.ReadyState &lt;&gt; 4
            DoEvents            
            TimeOut = DateDiff("s", dtStart, Now)
            If TimeOut &gt;= WaitTime Then 'Wait
              Exit Do
            End If
        Loop
End function
</code></pre>

<p>Now i understand i can do the above using httpwebrequest but not able to figure how to send the username and password or in other words what would be c# equivalent of</p>

<p>"XMLHttpRequest.Open "GET", g_SonyFeedURL, True, sUsername, sPassword   "</p>

<p>and DoEvents so that i can make it wait for couple of min and if i dont get a reponse abort the request?</p>

<p>Any suggestions?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
