I am not sure but you may have to add the following code

myRequest.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

//or a vaild credentials to access the web page through an application

[poojabawa]

string MyUrl = ConfigurationSe ttings.AppSetti ngs["MyUrl"].ToString();
HttpWebRequest httpRequest = (HttpWebRequest )WebRequest.Cre ate(str);
httpRequest = (HttpWebRequest )WebRequest.Cre ate (str);
httpRequest.Pro xy = WebProxy.GetDef aultProxy();
httpRequest.Cre dentials = CredentialCache .DefaultCredent ials;
httpRequest.Use rAgent = "ccc";
WebProxy myProxy = new WebProxy("http://localhost:80",t rue);
// FindServiceSoap myFindService = new FindServiceSoap ();
// myFindService.P roxy = myProxy;
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebRespons e)httpRequest.G etResponse ();
Stream receiveStream = response.GetRes ponseStream ();
StreamReader readStream = new StreamReader (receiveStream, Encoding.UTF8);
string abc = readStream.Read ToEnd();

Above is the code i am using...
but am getting the same error

I think you need to close the response

I ran into the same situation and for me it turned out that I needed to do a resp.Close() on a previous HttpWebResponse , once I did that it worked for me. 404 is a red herring.

I had similar kind of problem using https. It requires some certificate from the source site. This piece of code worked for me. Hope it helps:

[B]//Subscribe this event in class where you use HTTPRequest[/B]
if (ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback == null)
                {
                    ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(CustomXertificateValidation);
                }

 private static bool CustomXertificateValidation(object sender, X509Certificate cert, X509Chain chain, System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors error)
        {
                return true;
        }
