Indy is not portable to VC++.  Unless you write a DLL or COM object or
something like that which is written in BCB and then used in VC++.

Not a component persay, because VC++ doesn't use components like BCB does.
However, I did already point you to a few API functions which are callable
from VC++ as well as BCB.  Otherwise, just create a socket using the WinSock
API directly and then send RFC-complient data over it, basically
implementing HTTP manually.
