Operation has timed out Exception

Question

Dear friends, I am developing one Windows application under C# (.NET 2003) which uses HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse. I have written the following code in application. // Code Start HttpWebRequest HWReq1 = null; HttpWebResponse HWResp1 = null; try { HWReq1 = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.co.in/search?q=India"); HWReq1.Timeout=25000; HWReq1.UserAgent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50215)"; HWReq1.AllowAutoRedirect= true; HWReq1.Method="POST"; HWReq1.ContentType = "text/html"; HWResp1 = (HttpWebResponse)HWReq1.GetResponse(); } catch(Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); } // Code End When I run the above code i get an exception "Operation has timed out" I have tried with different Timeout property including -1 (infinite) but it doesnt work. but when i run the same code in .NET 2005 windows application , it runs successfully without any Error. Can any one help me and tell me that why this is happening ?
