Indy is available for Kylix, well, Indy 9, anyway.  You don't need a form -
you can just instantiate the components in code, no problemo.

That being said, the Synapse units as mentioned by Ben are exellent, (on
Windows, anyway), an have no pretensions of being components that can be
plonked on forms.

IMHO, 'blocking components' are a bit of a kludge anyway since you nearly
always end up having to instantiate them in a thread class unless you are
willing to put up with the 'application.processMessages' bodges like
TidAntifreeze.

Martin
