If you mean with QB, yes, but it's impractical for program purposes. You can, however, use V1ctor's DSock to use a windows .vxd to access winsock routines.

winsock is a standard windows library that accesses tcp/ip routines on your network card. It's for the most part, by my stupid assumptuous knowledge, how your computer goes on the internet.

A less complicated alternative to DSOCK would be to use wget (a command-line utility for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS and FTP).

You'd just shell wget.exe and then open the output file to read it. Of course it's messier than DSOCK, but if you don't know anything about sockets it's much easier.
