1. Create file with extension ".js" and open it with
text editor of your choice (Notepad is fine)
2. Enter the following code:

var oWinsock;
var sURL = '';
var sPage = '';
var sServer = '';
var nPort = 80;
var sSource = '';
var bClose = false; 

//enter desired URL below
sURL = 'http://localhost';

//parse URL
if (sURL.indexOf('://') > 0)
  sServer = sURL.substr(sURL.indexOf('://') + 3);

if (sServer.indexOf('/') > 0) {
  sPage = sServer.substr(sServer.indexOf('/') + 1);
  sServer = sServer.substring(0, sServer.indexOf('/'));
}

if (sServer.indexOf(':') > 0) {
  nPort = sServer.substr(sServer.indexOf(':') + 1);
  sServer = sServer.substring(0, sServer.indexOf(':'));
}

if (sServer != '') { //connect to the server
  oWinsock = new ActiveXObject("OSWINSCK.Winsock");
  WScript.ConnectObject(oWinsock, "oWinsock_");

  oWinsock.Connect(sServer, nPort);
} else {
  WScript.Echo("Invalid URL");
  bClose = true;
}

function oWinsock_OnConnect() {
  oWinsock.SendData('GET /' + sPage + ' HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n');
}

function oWinsock_OnDataArrival(bytesTotal) {
  var sBuffer = oWinsock.GetDataBuffer();
  sSource = sSource + sBuffer;
}

function oWinsock_OnError(Number, Description, Scode, Source, 
    HelpFile, HelpContext, CancelDisplay) {
  WScript.Echo(Number + ': ' + Description);
}

function oWinsock_OnClose() {
  oWinsock.CloseWinsock();
  WScript.Echo(sSource);

  oWinsock = null;
  bClose = true;
}

while (!bClose) {
  WScript.Sleep(1);
}
