yes, i am aware that turing's net code is poor at best, but i want to create a program that allows me to download files from the internet

code:
Get url
get filename
download url+filename to directory XXX


that's basically what i want the heart of the program to do.

You can use:
code:
Sys.Exec ("http://something.com/something.asd")

Then when the page opens up in a browser, it is automatically saved in the temp folder. Make your program locate the Temp files folder and copy the file and paste it in to a disired location.

If you are downloading an exe file, then you will just have to use the Sys.Exec command to locate the exe on the web.
