Non-blocking URL commands

[Andrew Kluthe]

The crash just comes when it is taking a minute and the user tries to
hit refresh again a couple of times or makes some other http request.
Too many of those and my program stops responding on windows.

Can you elaborate a little more on "wait with messages style
blocking"? I am a bit dense today.
