Inetload complain 'SendRequest error'
I build an installer using NSIS 2.07. It needs to download some files from website using HTTP.It runs OK under Windows 2000. but when I test it under Windows 2003, it displayed 'connecting...', then return a message, 'SendRequest error'. By the way, I can download the files using IE.
Could someone please tell me what the matter is? Thanks in advance.

Dont know exactly but guess that the ie functions are limited in Windows 2003 Server. So you have to make sure to have the wininet.dll working properly to use the Inetload plugin.

Currently I have not win2003 installed in office (while I have disk :) ), may be later I'll find free comp for the test. wininet.dll from 2003 in "dependency walker" looks fine. This also may be firewall or security limitation in 2003.

I lost all OE messages DB during installation :( , but finally tested last InetLoad on 2003 std server - all worked fine, Cameron Diaz (image) came to comp in a moment. So this is not system dependant problem.
