This is my version of the Daily Dilbert program here. The big difference is that this one doesn't use the msinet ocx. It demonstrates downloading a file from the internet with a couple of lines of code and no dependencies (other than MS Internet Explorer). I used the filesystem object for file reading but this could be changed to a native open command to eliminate the dependency on scrrun.dll (the scripting runtime file).
