Thanks for the pointers, I will take a look. I have, however, found part
of the problem and have now gotten around the hang. I was able to
replicate this using curl.exe on the command line. It has to do with the
fact that as part of my own headers I was specifying as part of my post,
one of the headers was 'Content-length'. Even though this length was
correctly set, its specification was somehow intefering with the NTLM
negotiating that was going on. By not specifying this header and letting
libcurl build it itself, things worked fine. I have updated my code and
  have gotten further along.

Thanks again.
