WebClient Login

[Bopo]

Hey

Well I'm trying to log into Squidoo and simply download data from basically your own dashboard, I've written this in C sharp but I don't think it matters tbh.

Private Sub LoginSquidoo()
        Dim wc As New WebClient()
       
       Dim nc As New NetworkCredential("email", "password", "http://www.squidoo.com/member/login")
       
        wc.Credentials = nc
        Try
            Dim response As Byte() = wc.DownloadData("http://www.squidoo.com/lensmaster/dashboard")
            Dim result As String = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(response)
           richTextBox1.Text = result
       Catch e As Exception
          MessageBox.Show("Exception", e.ToString())
       End Try
     End Sub

I'm getting no errors, and analysing the HTML within the result string just shows the login page, without an error or anything, it's like I just browse to the login page and did nothing. The login page looks simple enough, maybe a POST or something, but maybe the authentication scheme just doesn't work with this, advice appreciated.
