By not using "..." in your catch statement to begin with.  You can't get
*any* error information by using that.  You should be catching specific
Exception types instead, then you can check to see what type of exception is
being thrown, ie:

    try
    {
        HTTP->Get(Url);
    }
    const (const EIdConnectException &e)
    {
        // connection timeout...
    }
    catch (const EIdReadTimeout &e)
    {
        // reading timeout...
    }
    catch (const EIdException &e)
    {
        // any Indy exception...
    }
    catch (const Exception &e)
    {
        // any VCL exception...
    }
