   Try
        ' Creates an HttpWebRequest with the specified URL.
        Dim myHttpWebRequest As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(url), HttpWebRequest)
        ' Sends the request and waits for a response.
        Dim myHttpWebResponse As HttpWebResponse = CType(myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
        If myHttpWebResponse.StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK Then
            Console.WriteLine(ControlChars.Lf + ControlChars.NewLine + "Response Status Code is OK and StatusDescription is: {0}", myHttpWebResponse.StatusDescription)
        End If
        ' Release the resources of the response.
        myHttpWebResponse.Close()

    Catch e As WebException
