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'm trying to use a java servlet in a 3rd party tool's web interface (CA service desk) to invoke it's download file functionality using a webclient in vb.net. The trouble is the text stream from response is markup and not the acutual text file stream.
It's like the page is redirecting to another page which actually presents the file for downloading. I have no idea what the redirected page URL is.
Is there a way I can process this redirected page in order to get at the download using a system.net.webclient?
I am making a program with a very good HWID system, but so far it uses a standard WebClient control, I want to know how to make it more secure, like possibly encrypting the connection to a site (Uses PHP), or making sure the connection isnt being tampered with. are their any tools/pieces of code to do these checks/encryption?[code]...
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 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 trying to use system.net to download a zip from a website.I am using the following code .[code].....I am doing something wrong here.The zip file is getting downloaded but the size is not correct.How to know the size of the file I download and assign to my buffer .
We recently started playing with a vb.net 2008 WebClient on a Windows 7/64 workstation to download files from a web site to the local machine.It works except that we cannot detect if the URL is invalid. It doesn't throw an error. If we use Async it does trigger the Download Complete event but there was no file since the URL was incorrect.Is there a way to detect an incorrect URL?I also noticed that the events does not give you either the URL or the file?
I have a desktop application from where i want to download files from the web server. when i am downloading a single file then there is no problem. but when i want to download more than one file there is an error like "WebClient does not support concurrent I/O operations".
I have a weird bug with webclient. I made an app a while ago which uses webclient to download a small thumbnail image.. and I rememeber when I first made it, the first time webclient was used to download the image it always took 15 sec+ to download it, but after the first it always downloaded quickly (in like 1 sec) .. but then the problem went away for me and it always downloaded fine.but now someone else who uses my app is having the slow image download problem apparently around 50% of the time it downloads the thumbnail images. so does anyone know what might be causing this? As I said, I don't have the problem any more on my comp - but I don't know why :s
I'm trying to code a program that can download multiple files at once (on different threads of course).I have created a custom listview component that will allow me to add a progressbar directly to it.What my real question is, how can i take a url given by the user from an input box and create a new webclient to handle the download asynchronously and also report the progress without disturbing all of the other downloads in progress?
I would like to create a secure login page for a pre-defined set of users (so no creating username/passwords by the users themselves). I've looked up a few sites and they all seem to suggest using Microsoft's Membership or something. I am not very sure as to why that's used, but all you need to know is that I will be creating the login details. I just need to make the login secure, ie, no duplicate logins, no logins from different browsers and cookies and sessions and encryption and all that. Any one have the code/links to where I can get all this?

I'd like to be able to to login to a secure website directly from within my VB.Net 2005 app.
I can use the following to open the page in the user's default web browser
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.xxx.com/login") When you visit this webpage you're prompted for a username and password (using the .htaccess/.htpasswd method).
I'd like to be able to bypass the login popup and go straight to the logged in form (I have username and password stored in my.settings
I have making login system using with php. Now I want to hide the link by using strongest MD5 hash, but the one I have got is uncrackable. I want to decrypt them in the runtime, but I couldn't

I have making login system using with php. Now I want to hide the link by using strongest MD5 hash, but the one I have got is uncrackable. I want to decrypt them in the runtime, but I couldn't.
Here's the Public Class Form1 Function MD5Hash(ByVal strToHash As String) As String Dim md5Obj As New Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider Dim bytes() As Byte = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(strToHash) bytes = md5Obj.ComputeHash(bytes) [Code] .....
The GetMD5Hash's method is using for to decrypt the MD5 hash to turns into the actual strings and MD5Hash's method is using for encrypt the strings into md5... However, the connection strings can be sniff the packets sent out. How to decrypt the MD5 hash and how to blocked the connection strings in the packets sent out??

I want to make a download Manager with resume capability (dont refer me to codeproject examples which use httpwebrequest and webresponse classes) i want to make the use of system.net.webclient class. I know it can provide me with events and stuff but is it possible to resume our downlaods with this class ?
