Hi Adriano,
You'd better explaing what you want to do, but i assume this will help
you to find out:
Dim web As New System.Net.WebClient
web.DownloadString("http://www.google.com").ToString

which receives the whole HTML(plus scripts) code in string type.

Hope this helps,

Hello Onur,

thanks for reply, I just want to load some HTML tags to textbox.
What your code will look like if I use HTTP proxy with authentication?

thanks in advance!

You can even set "Credentials" property and you can also set "Proxy"
property which are the members of "System.Net.WebClient" class.

property which are the members of "System.Net.WebClient" class.

I want to make an addition that maybe useful for the people who are
looking for similar help same with Adriano:

To use "Credentials" property of WebClient class you must define
credentials on "System.Net.NetworkCredential".

' Define credentials in NetworkCredential class
Dim credentials_my As New Net.NetworkCredential
credentials_my.UserName = "username_here"
credentials_my.Password = "password_here"

' Then use defined credentials on your WebClient's Credentials
Dim web As New System.Net.WebClient
web.Credentials = credentials_my
web.DownloadString("http://URL_here")
