This is platform specific, but maybe libwww has some platform wrappers.

Check WinInet and WinHTTP APIs provided by Microsoft. I don't remember
exactly which, but one of them can not be used from under services,
while the other was exactly created to be used from within the services.

Check also this article on its usage:

Dundas Ultimate TCP/IP Library as far as I remember has something for
HTTP too, but that's not for free I think.
