Excellent. libcurl did the trick, thanks for the advice. The problem I experienced with the CFNetwork api was the strict adherence to redirects continuing to be POST operations. Reading the API on libcurl it specifically said I could control this (among other things), and it worked great. I was also able to write about 5 lines of code compared to the hoops I had jump through just to get CFNetwork with callbacks to work.

Have you considered using libcurl instead?
