You are using an out of date browser. It may not display this or other websites correctly.
You should upgrade or use an alternative browser.

How about you use a WebBrowser control instead? That should be a far
simpler task; just Navigate(yourUrl) and you're done...?

There is an actual WebBrowser control for viewing web content in your
application. I'm not sure in which version it was introduced, but Visual C#
2008 Express has one in the toolbox.
Hope this helps!

..NET Framework 2.0
Visual Studio 2005 (all variants)
Before then you could presumably use interop to the ActiveX facet of
shdocvw.

Well I want to save it to a database too, I don't just want to view it.

There are various tools for this type of thing - a few leap to mind
that would allow you to grab a page as pdf (ABCpdf, HTMLDOC, etc). You
could perhaps try and automate the "mht" download from IE
(=shdocvw=WebBrowser), but I suspect it might be tricky.
I'm not /personally/ aware of any tools that to direct HTML => RTF
translation, but google may have some hits...

It doesn't really have to be html to rtf, I want to be able to type in
a url and have my program download that specific page plus the
images and save it to a db.

I was looking at this program that does something like I want, and I noticed
that they are using a webbrowser component to download and view the page.
But what are they doing to store the contents of the page to a db, that is
the
question.

It's called Source code library:

It looks like they are using a webbrowser to download the url, then they are
storing the information from the webbrowser into a database. Then they
retrieve the info from the db as they need to display it.

Maybe I'm missing it, but I can't see anything in the overview for
that product that claims to anything remotely like what you have
described?
Care to ellaborate?

Sorry if this doesn't help, but I searched for something completely
unrelated - and read this message because it interested me.
I think that you want a basic image scraping utility per URL.
