C# How to "check on", "cancel", and wait on Async WebRequests?

Let's say I have 50 requests that I started using BeginGetResponse.

How do I check the status of each request?
and how do I cancel it (sometimes they hang)?
and how can I perform an action when ALL requests are either completed or canceled?

The call to BeginGetResponse returns an IAsyncResult. Keep a reference to it. You can use the IAsyncResult.AsyncState to check the status of the request.

To cancel the request, call WebRequest.Abort of the original WebRequest instance.

To perform something when all requests are completed or cancelled, get a WaitHandle from IAsyncResult.AsyncWaitHandle for each of your requests, then wait on them all. Sample code here.
