           Summary: On Windows HttpWebRequest.GetResponse() times out when
                    executed in a timer
    Classification: Mono
           Product: Mono: Runtime
           Version: 2.6.x
          Platform: i686
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1;
Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152;
NET CLR 3.5.30729; InfoPath.2)

When the attached application is run on Windows (I've tried Windows XP and
Windows 7) I see the results shown in Actual Results.

The test app creates an HttpWebRequest on the main thread and it works.  Then a
timer is started and a new HttpWebRequest is created each tick.  The first
instance completes successfully.  However all subsequent attempts to call
GetResponse() result in a timeout error.

The same example when compiled and run using Mono 2.6.7 on Ubuntu does not
exhibit this problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Compile the test program using 2.6.7 or 2.8
2.Run it on Windows
Actual Results:  
I see output like:

Accessing the web site 1
Accessing the web site 2
Starting the timer
Accessing the web site 2
Error accessing the web site
The operation has timed out
Starting the timer

Expected Results:  
Accessing the web site 1
Accessing the web site 2
Starting the timer
Accessing the web site 2
Starting the timer
etc..
