            Have you tried using XDocument.Load or XmlDocument.Load?
If those don't do what you want, please give more details.

            Along with what @Jon Skeet said there's also the built-in WebClient:
    Dim MyData As String
    Try
        Using WC As New System.Net.WebClient()
            MyData = WC.DownloadString("http://www.example.com/text.xml")
        End Using
    Catch ex As Exception
        'Error downloading
    End Try
