It is late and (1:20 AM here right now) and I am tired 
so consider the source.  I don't think the ampersand in 
the line below is ok.  I think it is a mistake.

>   SessionHandle session_handle;
>
> if(&session_handle) // <-----is this OK...?

The class SessionHandle has an overloaded bool operator 
which returns true if it is properly initialized.  The 
lines I used are below and call that overloaded operator. 

  ----------
  SessionHandle session_handle;

  if (session_handle)
  ----------

Do you mean like this?

Give the command

  make -f try.mak
  (where the space after the -f and the 
   ".mak" extension are optional)

You CANNOT make the program "100% standalone".  It will 
always require at least kernel32.dll and user32.dll because 
it is a Windows programs and those DLL's are where Windows
resides.  By explicitly linking to wininet.dll you remove 
the implicit requirement for the DLL that the import library
causes so it can load on a system where that DLL is missing 
but it's not going to run correctly if the DLL cannot be 
found.
