Dowload File

Hi,
I have problem with downloading a file using WebRequest and
HttpWebResponse.
Inorder to download this file i need to call to url that
tells to
prepare the file for download,
and then i call to another url that downloads the file.
I have a problem with that because:

1. i do not know when the server finished the preparetion.
2.i checked the HttpStatusCode but he doen't changes
(myresponse.StatusCode).

the problem causes the application to download only a part
of the file
and that because the server hasn't prepared the file yet.
if i give him Thread.Sleep(100000) i do get the full file,
but the file
can be 100Mb and 10sec won't help.

the code is:
//Preparing the file todownload...
//----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
   HttpWebRequest webRequest3 = WebRequest.Create(d1) as
HttpWebRequest;
   webRequest3.KeepAlive = true;
   webRequest3.Headers.Add("Keep-Alive",
"300");
webRequest3.Headers.Add("Accept","text/xml
,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/
plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5");
           
webRequest3.Headers.Add("Accept-Language",
"en-us,en;q=0.5");
           
webRequest3.Headers.Add("Accept-Encoding",
"gzip,deflate");
           
webRequest3.Headers.Add("Accept-Charset",
"ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7");

            webRequest3.CookieContainer = cookies;
            HttpWebResponse myResponse3 =
(HttpWebResponse)webRequest3.GetResponse();

              Thread.Sleep(10000);
            Stream ReceiveStream3 =
myResponse3.GetResponseStream();

//----------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------

//Downloading ....
//----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------
            Console.WriteLine("Connecting to download
link...");
            HttpWebRequest webRequest2 =
WebRequest.Create(re) as
HttpWebRequest;
            webRequest2.ContentType =
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
            webRequest2.KeepAlive = true;
            webRequest2.CookieContainer = cookies;
            HttpWebResponse myResponse2 =
(HttpWebResponse)webRequest2.GetResponse();
            Stream ReceiveStream2 =
myResponse2.GetResponseStream();
            Console.WriteLine("Downloading...");

            Common.SaveStreamToFile("C:\scrapingtest\file.csv",
ReceiveStream2);
            Console.WriteLine("Done
Downloading");

Thanks, Rony
