a question about get HTML page from internet.

I'm using below code to get the first Length bytes of the web page. Now, I want to skip the first 50K bytes, and get the following 50K bytes. Is there a way to do that? Or I have to read the first 100K bytes? The first 50K bytes are useless to me and it slows down the program.

thank you very much.

VB Code:

Try
            Dim webReq As HttpWebRequest = DirectCast( _
                    WebRequest.Create(strURL), HttpWebRequest)
            ' Set a 30-second timeout.
            webReq.Timeout = 30000      ' 30 seconds
            webReq.UserAgent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)"
            webReq.KeepAlive = False        ' turn off persistent connections
            webReq.Accept = "text/html, text/xml"
            webReq.ReadWriteTimeout = 30000
 
            Dim webResp As HttpWebResponse = DirectCast( _
                                    webReq.GetResponse, HttpWebResponse)
 
            Dim sr As New StreamReader(webResp.GetResponseStream, Encoding.ASCII)   
 
            Dim lngLength As Long = Length
            
            Dim chrBlock() As Char
            ReDim chrBlock(lngLength * 1024)
            sr.ReadBlock(chrBlock, 0, lngLength * 1024)
            html = CType(chrBlock, String).Trim
 
                     ' always close
            sr.Close()
            sr = Nothing
 
        Catch ex As WebException
            html = ""
        End Try
