Question

I’m trying to download web page:

string remoteUri = "http://whois.domaintools.com/94.100.179.159";
WebClient myWebClient = new WebClient();
byte[] myDataBuffer = myWebClient.DownloadData(remoteUri);
string download = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(myDataBuffer);
HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(download);
doc.Save("file1.htm");

Having an error

webexception was unhandled: (403) Forbidden.

Are there any other ways to download the page?
I’ve tried HtmlDocument class, but as i can see it needs loaded web page in the browser.

HtmlWeb hwObject = new HtmlWeb();
        string ip = "http://whois.domaintools.com/";
        HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument htmldocObject = hwObject.Load(ip);

        foreach (HtmlNode link in htmldocObject.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//meta[@name = 'description']"))
        {
            ...
        }

using (var myWebClient = new WebClient())
{
    myWebClient.Headers["User-Agent"] = "MOZILLA/5.0 (WINDOWS NT 6.1; WOW64) APPLEWEBKIT/537.1 (KHTML, LIKE GECKO) CHROME/21.0.1180.75 SAFARI/537.1";

    string page = myWebClient.DownloadString("http://whois.domaintools.com/94.100.179.159");

    HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();
    doc.LoadHtml(page);
}
