Warning
You must call the Close method to close the stream and release the connection. Failure to do so may cause your application to run out of connections.
When using the POST method, you must get the request stream, write the data to be posted, and close the stream. This method blocks waiting for content to post; if there is no time-out set and you do not provide content, the calling thread blocks indefinitely.
