I am trying to download a file from a secure website but I don't know how to do it becuase it gives me the error. Can not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.
[code]...
My problem is that I can't set the credentials before I have to assign the variable the value so it throws an error.
I have a program that logs into a secure site, looks on the user's home page to find a list of links to reports that can be downloaded and then selects each one - this is currently a manual process but with 100 reports a time it takes a while. The idea is that all the reports will download to a specified folder with generic names so the user can play with them on their own computer rather than having to search through them online.
Anyway, everything's gone well as far as using a WebBrowser to connect to the site, log in and get the list of URLs however it falls down when it tries to link to them. I have tried two methods:
1 - Navigating straight to the URL, this gives an error message every time (asking me to try again)
2 - Directly downloading the URL with a WebRequest class (below) however this doesn't download the actual file, but rather a copy of the login page.
Current Code:
Public Sub DownFile(ByVal sFile As String, ByVal sRemoteUrl As String) Dim wr As HttpWebRequest Dim ws As HttpWebResponse
I have been looking for a method to download a file that is created by a .Net web site ( 3rd party so I can't control the download method ) and sent through the browser via response.writefile. The file is generated by the web page and then forced to the browser so I have to "walk" web site.
Browser Automation: I have tried to use AutoIT to automate the browser ( both IE and Firefox ) but ran into issues with each one. IE won't let me disable the download manager so I get popups and the Firefox component won't walk the DOM correctly to find the unnamed elements I need to access.
Web Browser Components: I also tried the GeckoFX component for VB.net but when you click the button it does not download the file. The WebBrowser control will download the file but still has all the popups that keep me from doing it with an unattended program.

The web site requires authorizaion and I can't get that to work either. I was able to login to Facebook with a userID and password but this site has not been co-operating.
httpWebRequest Try 1: 'Dim request As HttpWebRequest 'Dim response As HttpWebResponse = Nothing
Programmatically I want to download files from remote website to local drive.I have already tried Msxml2.XMLHTTP, SHDocVw.ShellWindows and Postmessage API, but not able to download (In VBA and .Net also).Remote website requires User ID, Password and token to login then only I can navigate through webpage and download the files.
I have a website which has a section under maintenance with a button called create a new file - when you click on this button it does a backup and generate a filename on the same page called *.tbf - the filename changes each time you click on create a new file
Im writing a program to download a file from a official website every Sunday. The adress of this site keeps changing. Does anyone know how I can link to this address?
[URL]
I've highlighted the part of the adress that changes. As you can see, it's a date, but not nessesarily the current date. It could be yesterday, or the day before. I've tried something like this:
Dim link link = "http:www.fiskeridir.no/content/download/4641/30774/version/254/file/Register-internett-*.xlsx"
Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClientGamerTag.Replace(" ", "+")wc.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential(Email, Password, "http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=" & GamerTag)Dim fx As New System.IO.StreamReader(wc.OpenRead("http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=Dark Slipstream" & GamerTag))Dim str As String = fx.ReadToEndfx.Close()
The above code will open a webclient, set the credentials (possible error?), create a stream of the entire page, and then load it into a string (str).I then scan through and look for what is needed (Gamerscore, Motto, Bio, etc)-in this case.This doesn't work however, it doesn't sign in.
I am trying to create a script that can login to a secure (HTTPS) website using credentials I supply then use MS' bitsadmin tool to download a report from the website. Once I automate this, I can then automate some processes of handling that report. So I am taking this step by step and trying to focus on getting the autologin portion to work before taking any other steps. The website I am logging into is not your typical site, it requires 3 fields 1) Organization 2) User Name 3) Password. See attached image as a reference. Also I have attached a text file with the source code of the relevant portion of the website login page.
So I hunted around and built a script off of a couple others I found and I am very close. See below for my script. The main problem I think I am running into is the stupid security alert popup I get from IE. I have no idea how to use the "sendkey" function on this popup to send "y". If I did, I think the script would work. When I run the script IE opens up and the security alert popup appears. I can wait as long as I want, but the popup doesn't go anywhere and IE just seems to sit there. [Code]

I am making a windows form and through this form i want my users to upload and download files stored in a Directory on a machine running windows 2003.Could anyone please tell me the best and secure way to share files on a directory for users to Upload and download and "without letting the users to know the actual path"..User Clicks on a Button and it will automatically download the files from server.User Clicks on another Button and it will automatically upload the files to server.The file name and paths will be taken from labels which are hidden on my form so the user doesn't need to specify anything..I have 3 Options and looking forward to some expert opinion on this. My main concern is to never reveal the location to users and smooth upload and downloads.Is there any better option..i mean from my windows form perspective only and not talking about firewall settings, folder permissions etc...or any 3rd party software to protect data.[code]
I am using a WebBrowser-Control to fill in a webform and then click at a button, this currently results in a standard Download File Dialog (you get these if you download a file using internet explorer), but instead, I have to catch this file and save it automatically with a by me defined name to a specific folder.I am trying to code a little application in vb.net which download the Export-file from my wordpress-blog, and I want to do this completely without user-interaction.Currently everything works, except the downloading of the file.I tried to catch it with the event System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser.Navigating(ByVal Object, ByVal System.Windows.Navigation.NavigatingCancelEventArgs) but I don't see where to download the file from?

I need to download serveral years worth of files from a web site, the web site posts files daily in "Date".csv. How do I write the code in vb.net to get the string value for the dates? I know that you can do something like : Dim start date = #11/01/2009# and Dim end date= Now.
How do I get these values so I can incorportate them in a string? And then loop through each value.
It will need to start with the first date an download that file, then loop through all the dates downloading each file until it has reached the end date. I already have the code written to extract the info i need from the document and import into a sql server, my only issue is the date range string issue
I am new to Visual Basic. I have Visual Basic 2010 Express. I am planning to make a program that can download files from a website to put on an SD Card to Soft Mod, or hack it. I want it so that the user clicks on a radio button based on what System Menu their Wii is running on. There is currently, System Menu 4.0 or less, System Menu 4.2, and System Menu 4.3.
They also have to choose a region from a List Box. The current options are:
Region U (Americas) Region K (Korean) Region J (Japanesse) Region E (European)
I also want it so that the user can choose where to download the installation files for the Wii soft Mod.
I want to have a button that when the user clicks on it, a pop up asks them where they want to download the files to appear, once they choose a location, i want it to download a file based on what they chose and i also want it so that it tells them what to do with the files and where to put them.
I usually download file using following code:My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile("url of the file","filepath to save the file")But recently I encountered a site that only allow file download if you click it from its site and not via direct downloading from vb.net code.How to download file from http server that requires a referral before allowing the download?
My application runs on a "server" machine and provides files (10megs - 100megs each) to 8 other computers. Currently this is done using a standard shared folder on all 8 computers and the server simply copies the file to \ComputerNameSharedFolder - and everything is great.However, due to new policies we need to remove all shared folders, so using a simple \ComputerNameSharedFolder is no longer feasible. Therefore I need to find a way for my application to be able to share these files in a safe, secure, and compliant way.There has been talk of using sFTP which would require each system to have an sFTP server running at all times (controlled by the application somehow), or also SSL was talked about as it can be integrated into the application easily, etc...
I have tried a few things like converting HTML to XML and then using an XML navigator to get input elements but I get lost whenever I start this process.What I am trying to do is to navigate to a website which will be loaded using textbox1.text.Then download the html and parse out the input elements like . username, password, etc and place the element by type (id or name) into the richtextbox with the attribute beside the name.[code]Any clues or how to properly execute an HTML to XML conveter, reader, parser?

I am programming a service for a company that will log valuable performance data on machines that they lease out to other companies. It is critical for them that this information is as safe as possible and that it can only be read by us (a program created by us that is). I already made a trippledes encryptor that works fine but i still have the issue that a person can delete or move or corrupt the file if he somehow manages to get out of the operation software and gain acces to it.So my question is: Can i lockdown a file and make it as good as impossible to change the file or delete it other then by being the admin or the program that is generating them?
Im creating a program that stores usernames/passwords for different devices which will require a login to get into the program but I need to save the usernames/passwords somewhere. Is there a more secure way to store this than in a text file? Or I could try encryption which could be quite fun.
How to secure App.config file. As it contains all the passwords that connections use so any body can see the data in my databases. If we donot save the password at the time of making connection string, will it still be able to connect with the DB the same way?
