ASP.NET 2.0. Real time screen scraping, is it possible???

Hi,

I am new to ASP.NET 2.0 but am a competent programmer.

I am writing a screen scrapper to aggregate data from several different
pages. This seems straight forward but what I would really like is for
my page to react to changes in the source (page being scrapped),
automatically update if you like.

Is this possible??

If not how can I set my page to re-scrape regularly, every 5 mins for
instance?

All input received greatefuly.

I assume by re-scrape you mean refresh. If that is correct, then try the
