通过重定向链接使用webrequest.create c＃下载文件

Question

I am trying to download a file from a page that redirects itself using JS. For example: https://wix.codeplex.com/downloads/get/119160 When that page is loaded in the browser the file download starts automatically using a JS function. But when I try to download it using webrequest.create I only get the HTML of that page (119160).

Is there any clean way to download the file without inspecting the html/js manually?

Thanks,

Could use WebBrowser control (which can handle JS execution) then subscribe to the FileDownload event.

For a little earlier notice, you could subscribe to Navigating (which should get triggered once the JS kicks in).
