Webbrowser and images (how not to display them)

I have an application that uses the web browser component in VS 2005. I
know this is just a wrapper for the com component. What I need to do is
control wether or not the images on the navigated pages get displayed,
but I'm not sure how to do this.

Any suggestions?

Images are still going to be sent to the client by the server when the page
is requested so use server-side code to determine what is and what is not
displayed in the page. There's more than one way to skin this cat.

It's not my site. I'm using the webbrowser component to automate some
things on a site that I need to do on a daily basis, and need to do it
as quickly as possible. Given that I don't want the webbrowser
component to download the images.

When I kick off the application I set my Internet options by unchecking
the check box for show pictures. This causes every browser, including
the webbrowser component, to not display/download the images. Thus
making the surfing faster.

I want to control this at the application level so the whole machine
isn't set that way. How would I do this on the webbrowser component?
