Does this only occur with a specific server only?

Here is the code

Function get_web_data(ByVal url)


Dim html
' Debug.WriteLine(url)

'Create a WebRequest
Dim wrRequest As WebRequest
wrRequest = WebRequest.Create(url)

'Get the Response from the Request
Dim wrResponse As WebResponse = wrRequest.GetResponse()

'Read the Response into a stream and output the stream
Dim objStream As Stream = wrResponse.GetResponseStream()
Dim objStreamReader As StreamReader = New StreamReader(objStream)
Try
html += objStreamReader.ReadToEnd()
wrRequest.Abort()
objStream.Close()
objStreamReader.Close()

Catch ex As Exception
wrRequest.Abort()
objStream.Close()
objStreamReader.Close()
get_web_data = "Error: " & ex.Message.ToString
Exit Function
End Try

get_web_data = html
Debug.WriteLine(html)

End Function
