Before I begin, is it possible to write a .doc file with mixed content using a streamwriter? For example, I may have a .doc file with images and text - would a streamwriter be suitable for this?

It only has to process things one at a time, never in parallel (eg. Threads). Essentially I want it to poll the queue, if there's anything there, proc...
What is the best practice for getting a webrequest asynchronously? I want to download a page from the internet (doesn't matter what) and avoid blocking a thread as much as possible.
