I don't get what your problem is. Have you looked at the inetc documentation?

Yes I have but cant seem to get it working. I have no problems using a VBscript. works like a dream but i would like to use the installer for this funcrionality. I just get the connecting popup or URL parts error but not the responce im expecting.

If the plugin does not provide the functionality just output to the file and then read it with the FileOpen, FileRead and FileClose functions.
