RE: Setting timeout in HttpURLConnection

Dear Mr. Lazar,

One more thing:

5.) Again according to the Java v1.3 SE API, Socket.setSoTimeout() ONLY 
limits the amount of time a read() call on the InputStream associated with 
that Socket.  The Socket itself is not affected by the timeout and is still 
treated as being "valid."  So, if the block is caused by the lack of an 
InputStream (as in my case), manipulating setSoTimeout() will not solve the 
problem.
