HTTP Wrapper Broke, Going back to VB6 :/
It seems that just about every year my Wrappers break. It happened to 2010 and 2008 and now to 2013. There's an old VB6 TCP wrapper floating around that has always worked through out the years, old faithful if you will.

Anyway i've tried making a new HTTP Wrapper and figuring out what was wrong with the old ones i have, and have made.
It seems that they are no longer holding cookies, when i'm running Charles i see the "?LoginSucess=######" but when a bot re loads the page it doesn't keep the login session.

Anyone know what's going on or how to fix it?

I've gotten a little better with tcp, and I could try writing something up using that method.

I noticed today that the login has some absurd security, this might have something to do with you login failing.

There are two, randomly generated values. along with your usually token and sid for login.

Lastly, there is a <new? i just noticed it today> CHAP authentication, that doesn't seem to appear if you get /auth/.

Probably doesn't fix anything, but might help understand what's going on here.

The security data isn't a problem i made something to filter and put those values in the right place, you see if i have my program spit out the data for me i can just put it into a web browser and it works. If you could make a decent TCP HTTP Wrapper that handles cookies for VB.Net 2010 + (I use 2013) it would be great.

EDIT: here i made a quick login data grabber: https://mega.co.nz/#!Nolz1Tga!HvXmV-UevdYsHYPhlKFPzBJCLW3SkQoOfBgQpgxiwvU
just put your username and password in it and it will will spit out your login link, copy and paste that into your browser and it should work.

I'll take a look at things as soon as I can. I've been without internet service for four days due to my ISP having issues in my area. In the meantime can you see if the login on my dumpster dive bot works? That's should help pinpoint the problem.

Your dumpster diver works fine, anyway i'm just a dumb ass.
I installed VB6.0 Enterprise and hand converted some of my code just to realize the string i used to determine whether login was successful or not has been removed and replaced by "Hi". Anyway ill make a better way for me to determine login success. Although another reason i thought it was the cookie handling was because it would always login on one site but immediately lose session. (Which is weird because on the same site my VB6.0 wrapper works fine for it).
