QNetworkAccessManager does not emit finished(QNetworkReply*) signal on Windows CE

Hello,

I have an application with two classes. I have a launcher class which is started at main() and in turn launches a QMainWindow.

In the launcher class, a simple 'get' using QNetworkAccessManager takes forever until, I touch the screen (which I believe posts a QMouseEvent).

Example:

If I have this in my launcher class:

connect(&networkManager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)),
             this, SLOT(requestFinished(QNetworkReply*)));
networkManager.get(QNetworkRequest(QString("http://google.com/complete/search?output=toolbar&q=a")));

The finished(QNetworkReply*) signal is not emitted until I touch the screen of my mobile device.

This problem does not occur on any Qt version on desktop Windows 7 and Linux (using the same set of code). It also does not occur on Qt 4.6.0 on Windows CE. The problem occurs in Qt 4.6.2.

Regards,
Andreas
