TidHTTP.DoRequest and Norton

Hi,

I am using Indy 9 in Delphi 2005.
In my test application I do a the following request:

DoRequest(hmPost,<somelink>,aStreamSource,aStreamResponse);

I am using Norton Internet Security 2005. The first time when mijn test
executable runs I have to allow it to do requests to internet. After
allowing the request is done but I got an Response.ResponseCode = 200!

If I disable NIS 2005 and do the request I get all the data I expect from
the link I am calling!!!

I didn't tested this with other firewalls but I can't explain this behavior.
I think I can assume that my code is valid because it runs perfect when the
firewall is disabled.
I also think that I can assume that by allowing it to connect to internet
when the firewall is ON that the request is send.

So, my question is:
Why do I get that ResponseCode 200 when NIS is running???

Any suggestions are welcome :)

Thank you in advance,
Perry van der Meeren
