Web Requests in Desktop Apps?

General

Hi,

I understand that the “Handle Special URL” event (in Web Apps) is used to handle Web requests which is useful in developing Web Services.
Is there a way to handle Web Requests in Desktop Apps too? ( My goal is to build a desktop app middleware that acts like a database web service )

Thanks in Advance.
