Open a file from URL.

Hya.

I have looked trough my classes, and I can't see any way to open a file from
a http url.

File.Open cannot take a url as parameter, but how can it be done then?

Thanks,

Check System.Net.WebClient, it can download from a URL to a file with a
convenience method. Furthermore there is System.Net.WebRequest.
