What do you mean by "grabbing"?

Btw, you should consider formatting and indenting your code for easier comprehension.

See if this helps.

Public Class Form1
    Private myFile As String = "C:\test.html" '// File for testing.

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Me.Show()
        '// send file lines as a Array.
        getLinks(IO.File.ReadAllLines(myFile))
    End Sub

    Private Sub getLinks(ByVal htmlContentLines() As String)
        Dim iStartIndex, iEndIndex As Integer '// used to locate content to extract.
        For Each htmlLine As String In htmlContentLines '// loop thru all lines.
            If htmlLine.Contains("<div class=""tree tree-top""") Then '// locate lines that contain your links.
                iStartIndex = htmlLine.IndexOf("http://") '// get start location of link.
                iEndIndex = htmlLine.IndexOf("""", iStartIndex) '// get end location of link.
                MsgBox(htmlLine.Substring(iStartIndex, iEndIndex - iStartIndex)) '// extract link.
            End If
        Next
    End Sub
End Class
