Here are some lines of code that works with netbeans. note the imports
import org.apache.http.Header;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.auth.AuthScope;
import org.apache.http.auth.UsernamePasswordCredentials;
import org.apache.http.HttpEntity;
import org.apache.http.HttpHost;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet;
import org.apache.http.impl.conn.ProxySelectorRoutePlanner;
import org.apache.http.conn.params.ConnRoutePNames;
***SNIP
HttpGet method = null;
HttpHost targetHost = null;
HttpHost proxy = null;
DefaultHttpClient cli = new DefaultHttpClient();
method = new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse resp = null;
HttpEntity ent = null;
resp = cli.execute(method);
ent = resp.getEntity();
