abstract class

This class represents a response received from a WebRequest . A response consists of headers (stored as key/value pairs in the Headers property) and a response body. You can obtain the response body as a System.IO.Stream using the GetResponseStream( ) method.

When you are finished with the response, call its Close( ) method; this releases any open resources still held by the WebResponse without having to wait for garbage collection to do so (which could take longer than desired).
