What about this:
WebClient wc = new WebClient();
byte[] pageData =
wc.DownloadData("http://www.someserver.com/mytestfile.txt");
This has worked for me...

Subject: [DOTNET] FileStream question
Does anyone know if I can read a text file from a web server with the
FileStream class ? For example, if my .net application was launched from
www.ws.com\myapp.exe, could I read a file from www.ws.com by the name of
mytextfile with the following code ?
string Dir = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory;
file = new FileStream(Dir+"mytextfile",
FileMode.Open,FileAccess.Read,FileShare.ReadWrite);
reader = new BinaryReader(file, Encoding.Unicode);
