I am trying to create a webcrawler type application in VB.NET which will initially just look through a URL i specify to see if a certain link or picture file is contained within the page.

Can anyone please help me acheive this, So far from my very limited knowledge and pieceing together of .NET i believe i nned the following code below, but apart from that i am not sure what i need to do to acheive the functionality i need.

Dim myRequest As System.Net.WebRequest = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(" Dim myResponse As System.Net.WebResponse = myRequest.GetResponse()

Dim rssStream As System.IO.Stream = myResponse.GetResponseStream()

Any help will be greatfully appreciated. Thank you in advance for any code or advice you can offer.
