Might be best to post this to a C# group and explain what the code does.

I'm not quite sure in your code why you're buffering the output from
readfile because you can either use fopen on the URL or you can simply
do it with one line of code like so:

$filecontents = file_get_conten ts($source_file );

This will work whether it's a local file or a URL. (And from PHP5
there's also the nice file_put_conten ts() function as well so you can
write a file with one line of code).
