{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        string url = "http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/united-states/";

        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            HttpWebRequest request = null;
            request = HttpWebRequest.Create(url) as HttpWebRequest;
            request.Method = "GET"; // Supports POST too
            HttpWebResponse response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;

            if (response == null || response.StatusCode != HttpStatusCode.OK)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Site is Down");
            }
            else if (request.Method != "GET")
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Website does not support GET Method.");
            }
            else
            {
                string s = Web(url);
                MessageBox.Show(response.Method.ToString());
                MessageBox.Show(s);
            }
        }

        private string Web(string web)
        {
            // The HtmlWeb class is a utility class to get the HTML over HTTP
            HtmlWeb htmlWeb = new HtmlWeb();

            // Creates an HtmlDocument object from an URL
            HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument document = htmlWeb.Load(web);

            StringBuilder sf = new StringBuilder();
            foreach (HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlTextNode node in
                  document.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//li[@class='total']/em/text()"))
            {
                sf.Append(node.Text.Trim());
                break;
            }
            string f = sf.ToString();
            return (f);
        }

    }
}

Thanks in advance
