Exception: The operation has timed-out.

[news.microsoft.com]

I experienced the following exception occasionally when the program
downloads the image from the Web site. Who can give me some solution for it?
Thanks in advance.

Try again?
Show the user a message?

You have an external dependency. You are attempting to download an image
from a location you have no control over. It is a network resource. If the
operation times out, the response took longer than the 60 seconds you
instructed the WebRequest to wait for. Perhaps the image is way large.
Perhaps the server quit responding. Perhaps a packet was dropped. Maybe some
guy in a car ran into the wrong telephone pole. Who knows? It's an external
dependency. You have to handle this sort of contingency. How you handle it
is your requirement to decide.
