Is there a way to make TIdHTTP::Get() show it's current
progress-state, like it is displayed in IE when downloading a file?

I tried to modify my current code 

  TFileStream *stream=new TFileStream(dst_file,
fmCreate|fmShareDenyRead);
  try {
    TIdHTTP->Get(_web_address, stream);
  }
  ...

in the hope I can limit the stream's buffer to a certain number of
bytes and recall Get() again until the whole file is donwloaded, but
unfortunately without success.

Naturally I'm not too fixed on TIdHTTP::Get. If there is another way
with which this is possible, please let me know...


Thanks a lot,

Michael
