Hi,
How do I add a required cookie to my WebClient.DownloadFile() request?

I've not done it with downloadfile, but I expect you would use the
cookiecontainer
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...container.aspx

OK, I guess that answers my question indirectly. I will need to use
HttpWebRequest instead of WebClient.
Thanks,

In .NET 2.0, you have more control over WebClient. You might want to consider
subclassing WebClient and overriding GetWebRequest(). This would allow you
to attach your CookieContainer each time WebClient creates a HttpWebRequest.
