Why can't access this site with WebReqest?

[Sin Jeong-hun]

If you type directly this address
http://www.parkoz.com/zboard/login_c...to_login=false
into your browsers (IE or Opera) and press enter, it shows a page
anyway.
But in the following code, just throws a time-out exception.
I think the server is checking the client somehow, and decided that my
application is not a normal web browser. Some sites seem to check
referer string, but in this case, I disabled referer and cookie in
Opera, but it was still displayed in Opera.
Do you have any idea?
HttpWebRequest req=(HttpWebRequest)
HttpWebRequest.Create("http://www.parkoz.com/zboard/login_check.php?user_id=xxx&password=xxxx&auto_log in=false");
req.CookieContainer=new CookieContainer();
req.UserAgent="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98)";
req.Timeout=2000;
req.Referer="http://www.parkoz.com";
req.KeepAlive=true;
WebResponse res;
res=req.GetResponse();
StreamReader sr=new StreamReader
(res.GetResponseStream(),System.Text.Encoding.Defa ult);
string temp=sr.ReadLine();
sr.Close();
res.Close();
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(temp);

Probably some http headers are missing ( e.g. accept ).
You can install fiddler application to browse for http headers and include missed ones in your HttpWebRequest

HttpWebRequest has properties Accept, ContentType, Method, Expect etc. These properties correspond to appropriate http headers

here are sample headers
Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,image/jpeg,image/gif;q=0.2,*/*;q=0.1
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113
accept-language: en-us,en;q=0.5
accept-encoding: gzip,deflate
accept-charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7
keep-alive: 300
