Vb.net app to track webbrowser popup - vb.net

Question

I have a webbrowser control on my form, when I navigate to a certain page it opens a popup which opens the page in the current default browser for windows, in this case IE. I would like to access the source code for this page. I dont want to close it, I just want to grab the html.
Thanks for your help.
