No. There is a Boost networking library called ASIO (in CVS and the
next major release of Boost, or separately), and some discussion on
their mailing list about implementing popular application protocols
such as HTTP/FTP. See

In the mean time, have a look at the HTTP examples here:
http://asio.sourceforge.net/boost_asio_0_3_7/libs/asio/doc/examples/index.html#httpclient_section
