What about includes? Would it be a problem to have them installed as well?

Thanks, for now it more or less works (using Parse, not GetResult). But I have 
a strange problem: example2.cc as well as my program stall after receiving 
some data. As I noticed for example2.cc it receives 2271 bytes then waits for 
60 seconds and finishes receiving data so that the resulting file contains 
2402 bytes. If I increase buffer size to 2048 bytes the program reads all 
data at once but still stalls for 60 seconds before finishing execution. What 
may cause the problem?
