Automate saving a web page?

[gtjr92]

I want to create a VB.net script that will save a web site to a file. How can i do this? I actually will want to save several pages. This would be a weekly job. I know how to create jobs in job scheduler.
I don't know how to do the VB.
I know one way would be to use httpwebrequest and response but not sure how.

The Vb would direct my IE browser to a site then in IE it would save the file to a particular folder as "HTM web file only". (The default file save is a "web page complete" I don't want that) Then I need to dynamically name the file, otherwise they will all be named the same thing.
I was thinking maybe there is a way to create some sort of macro even?
Help is greatly appreciated

The easiest route would probrably be using the IE 6 save web page function. Then save them to a folder with the date in the name. Trying to download the page and parse out file names to grab the css, js, images, etc, would be a royal pita. Not sure if there's a way to control IE 6 like that through code, but a simple windows macro could do it. although then you have all the downsides of a macro.
