Pure curiosity -- *why* this is easy with VC++, i.e. what exactly (some 
class, code snippet, tutorial or smth. else) makes it easy? Maybe you 
just need the adequate thing for BCB?

Regarding your question -- check Indy or ICS components or Synapse 
class. FastNet is outdated, unsupported and buggy.
