Programmatically reading a web page

Have a look at the cURL library: 

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <curl/curl.h>

 int main(void)
 {
   CURL *curl;
   CURLcode res;

   curl = curl_easy_init();
   if(curl) {
     curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "curl.haxx.se");
     res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
      /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
   }
   return 0;
 }

BTW, if C++ is not strictly required. I encourage you to try C# or Java. It is much easier and there is a built-in way.
