BUYAKAA! This fixed my problem in the simple test AND in my application!
No need to send keep-alive bytes on the text/html level either.

I just added the "KeepAliveTime" setting with windows 7 regedit.exe in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/services/Tcpip, as a
REG_DWORD value, set it to decimal 25000 (so 25 seconds), rebooted,
and it all works as i want it now..

Note that windows registry entries key names are case-sensitive, wrong
casing and they'll be deleted on restart.

Lots of thanks, Daniel. I would've never solved this on my own..

I'll make an entry in the php.net website "comments" about this.
