Hello All,
Is there a way to use VB.net 2008 to go to a website. Enter a username
and password and login to the site. After that I will want to navagate to a
download section and download a file. Any ideas please.

I believe WebClient.Credentials and WebClient.DownloadFile() are what you
should use. Look in MSDN at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webclient.credentials.aspx
for an example.
