AdWords API Re: timeout exception

thanks for your both response, here are the details:
Im using C# on microsoft visual studiol.net 2005 edition.

the problem is that the service can't be "kept-alive" if Im behind
firewall/proxy

I have found a solution here:
http://weblogs.asp.net/jan/archive/2004/01/28/63771.aspx

which is to override the GetWebRequest function like this (setting
KeepAlive to false)

protected override System.Net.WebRequest GetWebRequest(Uri uri)
{
System.Net.HttpWebRequest webRequest =
(System.Net.HttpWebRequest)base.GetWebRequest(uri);
webRequest.KeepAlive = false;
return webRequest;
}

in every webservice.

I did it and it works, but I dont like changing the webservice/system
code, Im sure there is a place where you can define the default
behavior to non-keepalive. I just dont know where.

anyway -
for other readers - you may Ialso need to change ProtocolVersion to
HTTP10 if it doesnt help.
