 process has finished, the host IP stack will then just abort any
 relevant outstanding TCP connections - I'm just hypothesising here.
 
 I'll modify my test to see if this is an issue and get back to you.

+Actually, thinking about this, my comments about the process exiting
+before the connection is closed are probably wrong.
+
+The test code for the client (line 32 & 33) reads data back from the
+stream until it reads back 0 bytes - signifying that the connection is
+closed. It this correct? I am going on the assumption that the
+semantics for the stream returned by the GetResponseStream() function
+follow those of the lower level recv() function i.e. if the read
+returns with 0 bytes being read it means the connection has been closed.
+
+If this is correct, the TCP RST must have been sent before the
+application exits, so I have not idea why this would be the case.
+Also, if the client side does send a TCP RST on closing (or at any
+time), should this be reported to the application layer via some sort
+of exception?
