Those two transactions took about 24 or 26 hours to even receive one confirmation. Whereas I have seen other transactions go through in under a minute or 2.

Is there any reason that this may happen?

Weird, I have had 2 unconfirmed transactions sitting in my list for over 12 hours. Is this unusual? 

I am, yes.


            WebRequest request = GetWebRequest(new Uri(Url));
            request.Method = "POST";
            request.ContentType = "application/json-rpc";
            request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("<myuser>", "<mypass>");

I am creating the request via the JayRock JsonObject type.

            using (var stream = request.GetRequestStream())
            using (var writer = new StreamWriter(stream, Encoding.UTF8))
            {
                var call = new JsonObject();
                call["id"] = Convert.ToString(++_id);
                call["method"] = method;
                call["params"] = args;
                call.Export(new JsonTextWriter(writer));
            }

Thanks very much for the reply BTW :-)

What was your issue and how did you resolve it? I am trying to do the same thing, and have username and password set, and the allowed ip set to *.*.*.*

I keep sending out a request like this
{"id":"1","method":"getinfo","params":[]}

but i am constantly getting back this
{"result":null,"error":{"code":-32700,"message":"Parse error"},"id":null}

any clue on what I am doing wrong?
