title: How to send C++ winsock Get Request?
body: <p>I'm trying to write a bittorrent client and I need to work out how to send a HTTP GET request to the tracker with some specific parameters which can be found here: <a href="http://jonas.nitro.dk/bittorrent/bittorrent-rfc.html#anchor18" rel="nofollow">http://jonas.nitro.dk/bittorrent/bittorrent-rfc.html#anchor18</a></p>
  
  <p>I think I just about understand how to open a socket but how would I send a GET request in C++ on windows?</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated :)</p>
