Vista - How to download binaries via HTTP

I am looking for a PowerShell script that shows how to download binaries like
images or zip files from the internet via HTTP protocol.

Can anyone point me to an example?

Thanks in advance,

Andreas

The provided link was very helpful Thank you.

To summarize the usage, all you need to do is the following:

## Ensure the System.Net DLLs are loaded
[void] [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Net")

$url = "http://www.google.com/images/logo_sm.gif"
$filename = Join-Path "$(get-location)" "google-logo.gif"

write-host " Downloading: $url to $filename"

$webClient = new-object System.Net.WebClient
$webClient.DownloadFile($url, $filename)
