AW: getting timeout with load URL

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hi Jim,
yes, I have followed this excellent roadbook from Eric and everything works
fine so far. Up to now, where one beta tester got these mysterious timeouts
(which I verified with URLStatus()). So it isn't a general problem, but
seems to be an issue on his PC (Win XP) or his Provider line. I was
wondering if there are other settings as the socketTimeoutInterval I can
control from Rev or if I have to take it as it is?
Thank you
Tiemo
