Question : vb.net httpwebrequest timeout not working correctly

Hey,

I created an httpwebrequest and set a timeout for 8000 milliseconds, the only problem is that sometimes it doesn't work correctly and takes 2-10 minutes to load.

Here is my code:

 Function getUrl(ByVal url)

        log("Getting Url: " & url)

        request = HttpWebRequest.Create(url)
        request.CookieContainer = tempCookies
        request.UserAgent = userAgent
        request.Timeout = 8000

        If useProxy = True Then
            request.Proxy = New WebProxy(ProxyIP)
        End If

        Try
            response = request.GetResponse

            tempCookies.Add(response.Cookies)

            read = New StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream)
            Dim html As String = read.ReadToEnd
            read.Close()

            Return html
        Catch ex As Exception
            log(ex)
            Return False
        End Try

    End Function


Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
