Simulating a web form upload through windows based application

Hi,

I am developing a standalone or windows based application in vb.net which
simulates a website.

I would like to simulate this web form from my vb.net application:

<form action ="cgi-images/accept_upload.pl" method = POST
ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<input type = text name = uname>
<input type = password name =passwd>
<input type = FILE name = file1>
<input type = FILE name = file2>
<input type = FILE name = file3>
<input type = FILE name = file4>
<input type=submit>
</form>
I need help in this regard.

I referred the following site :

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/UploadFileEx.asp

The code in this site is not working as it simulates the following webform:

<form action ="http://localhost/test.php" method = POST>
<input type = text name = uname>
<input type = password name =passwd>
<input type = FILE name = uploadfile>
<input type=submit>
</form>

With this code , I am getting the following error:

"Cannot handle redirect from http/https protocols to other dissimilar ones"

Any kind of help is appreciable.

I need this help as early as possible.

Thank you.
Balu.

It would be interesting to see the HTTP traffic in this case. Can you
capture the traffic using Fiddler (www.fiddlertool.com)?

Cheers,
