Is it possible to send a SOAP request to a web service using PRTG. I have tried packaging up the SOAP request in the HTTPS POST of the advanced HTTP sensor, but form validation means I can't use this.
Example uses might be response time checking, checking Exchange web services, ensuring remote database connectivity using a web service etc.
Any suggestions?

I'm afraid you would need to generate a custom EXE / script sensor for such purposes.
