I tested it and it works fine but here is the new button click procedure on the mainform

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
FindThread: TFindWebThread;
begin
FindThread := TFindWebThread.Create (True);
FindThread.FreeOnTerminate := True;
FindThread.strUrl :=
'http://search.lyrics.ch/query/normal?' + 'artist=' +
ArtistEdit.Text + '&album=' + AlbumEdit.Text + '&song=' + SongEdit.Text;
FindThread.Resume;
end;

also you may need to check the edit for spaces and replace them with + signs

I seem to be having trouble with the piece that recieves the data, there are variable problems. If you would send me a working example, that would be great.
