Paul Dixon's answer is probably the best approach but Jesse's answer does touch something worth mentioning.

cURL -- or more precisely libcURL is a wonderfully powerful library. No need for executing shell scripts and parsing output, libCURL is available C,C++ and more languages than you can shake an URL at. It might be useful if you are doing some weird operation (like http POST over ssl?) that qt doesnt support.
