ICS Download
ICS is available as source code only. You need Delphi to build the sample programs and create your own application. You will also need OpenSSL libraries if using SSL-enabled components.
ICS versions available:
- ICS-V8 for Delphi 7 / C++ Builder 2006 to Delphi XE7 / C++ Builder XE3 with FireMonkey cross platform support for POSIX/MacOS, also IPv6 support (main development tree, 32 and 64-bit). Note that latest C++ Builder version supported is XE3 (lack of spare time, sorry).
- ICS-V7 for Delphi 7 / C++ Builder 2006 to Delphi / C++ Builder XE3 (stable release, no new development, please upgrade to V8).
- ICS-V6 for Delphi 7 / C++ Builder 2006 to Delphi / C++ Builder 2007 (discontinued and obsolete, please upgrade to V7 if you do not have to support Windows versions < W2K).
- ICS-V5 for Delphi / BCB 1 to Delphi / C++ Builder 2007 and Delphi .NET (discontinued, important bug fixes may still be backported from ICS-V7). SSL option requires at least Delphi 7 or C++ Builder 2006.
There are four options to obtain the source code.

Embarcadero's Partner DVD Shipped with Delphi / C++ Builder (not recommended)
This is probably not such a good idea, since it is likely to be an old version, built at the time this Delphi / C++ Builder version was released.
Overbyte Website
Download from Overbyte web site
Provides download links to latest stable releases. This is a safe choice if you use ICS-V5, ICS-V6 or ICS-V7. ICS-V8 however is still work in progress and only available from the version control repository or the daily snapshot from below. Note that ICS-V7 and ICS-V8 are the only ICS versions supporting Delphi and C++ Builder 2009 and later, 32 and 64-bit.
Zipped Daily Snapshots
This is the easiest way to get the latest version. These packages are built from the version control repositories automatically when they change and are refreshed once a day. To use the latest OpenSSL version, download this snapshot.

Version Control System
Using the version control repository is the best choice if you want to get live access to current development files. Overbyte uses a Subversion server and you need to use a Subversion client such as TortoiseSVN or your favorite browser. The URLs are as follows:
Use username = ics and password = ics for read access. Write access is only available to TeamICS.
Download OpenSSL Binaries (required for SSL-enabled components)
Please note the ICS source code has an internal check to only allow loading of the latest OpenSSL it was tested with, so you can not use new DLLs with an old application without recompiling with the latest version of ICS first. OpenSSL 1.0.1 is only supported by ICS v8, v7 is no longer updated for new OpenSSL versions. The 64-bit DLLs are only for use with Delphi applications compiled for the 64-bit platform, the 32-bit DLLs work on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows with 32-bit applications.

| 2010-05-08 | OpenSSL libraries and EXE v0.9.8n | Built with MinGW | Renegotiation support was re-enabled and RFC-5746 TLS renegotiation indication extension was implemented.

| 2009-06-11 | OpenSSL libraries and EXE v0.9.8L | Built with MinGW | Renegotiation support was disabled due to vulnerability of the SSL protocol - this fixes a severe security problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all renegotiation. If your application relied on session renegotiation OpenSSL v0.9.8L will break it. Enabling insecure renegotiation is not recommended. |

Download OpenSSL Binaries (alternative)
OpenSSL website also links to Win32OpenSSL website providing another build of Win32 DLL binaries. Note note that unlike the builds above builds on that site may have dependencies on Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables (to keep dll files smaller) so make sure you include all the required (and correct) redistributable files in your software installation. You probably don't have to care about that if you use binaries above at the cost of slightly larger DLLs. Also note that site does not keep archives of older versions so you may want to watch their page if you prefer their binaries.
Browser Demo Application using HtmlViewer
This is an example internet browser using the HtmlViewer component from: Google SVN (11.2) or GitHub (11.5).
The browser demo is in the V7 nightly zip, in the folder delphi\internet\browser, the project is FrameBrowserIcs.dpr. An executable version of the new demo may also be downloaded from here, as may HtmlViewer 11.2 used to test and build the demo.

| Executable Browser Demo |
| HtmlViewer component 11.2 |
The HtmlViewer component must be downloaded and installed before the demo can be built. The demo is based on FrameBrowserIndy project but with various enhancements, specifically display of all HTTP and some or all HTML traffic which makes it very useful for debugging the THttpCli component. The demo needs dated 1st April 2012 or later with the new cookies unit.
The project is a good basic browser for HTML4, but does not support any scripting, so some sites without backward compatibility may appear strange.
