That is to be expected.  Indy is a blocking library, and you did not specify 
any timeout for the Connect().  If the OS does not know that the network is 
not available then sockets will not know either, and thus it could take 
awhile for any errors to be reported.

You did not say which version of Indy you are using.  Connect() in Indy 9 
does have an ATimeout parameter.  In Indy 10, the parameter has been 
replaced with a ConnectTimeout property instead.
