Thanks for responding.

I thought Ares was already used in libcurl...

What do u mean "blowing up in gethostbyname?"

My code doesn't blow up. It just causes a firsttime exception and moves
on (but I need it to be succesful with no RPC busy exceptions)

I just know that it happens in the line "curl_easy_perform(curl)" (the
actual lookup) since when I comment this out the error goes away.

The debugger shows some error in some heap allocation/deallocation routine.

Ideas?
