    You can go for the WebClient.DownloadString method to get the Data from web sites.
    What I did was went to the IMDB Site and type something and clicked the button and URL Changed to
    Code:
    http://www.imdb.com/find?q=one+day+at+the+musem;s=tt
    I passed this to the method

    Code:
     Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClient()
            Dim strContents As String = wc.DownloadString(String.Format("http://www.imdb.com/find?q={0};s=tt", "one+day+at+the+musem"))
    Now the strContents will contain the web contents...
