HttpWebRequest not sending UserAgent

Question

I\'m new to looking at the whole Web side of .net, and I\'ve run into a slight issue.

I\'m trying to do a HttpWebRequest as below:

String uri = \"h

I don't think that you are looking at the correct Fiddler line. What you have shown is a CONNECT verb, not GET. The UserAgent should be properly set using the request.UserAgent property. Another way to debug the request is to configure network tracing at your application level which I personally prefer compared to Fiddler:
