Save content of webbrowser control to archive page

I want to build a program that can capture the contents of a web site to archive page (mht file).
Since the web site need to login and access certain page to get some session variables. I decided to use the webbrowser control (and so I can access the page manually before I start capture the contents).

I think it's easy to change the URL e.g.
webBrowser.Navigate("http://www.google.com")

But below code only allow me to save it to HTML format

VB

Dim MSDNpage As String = webBrowser.DocumentText
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("C:\test1.mht";, MSDNpage, True)

Any way to save it to mht? (vb .net)
Thanks in advance.

I tried to follow the info in the provided URL. However, I found that the downloaded mht file is not working. When open it with IE, it can't show the original web page. (and it's different when compare to the mht file saved with IE).
I found that it should be easier as if I called the
.ShowSaveAsDialog()

However, I don't know how to control the save dialog after it opened. Pls advice. Thx a lot
