I don't know of any way to do this through the object model, but the HTMLImg object has an href property which specifies
the URI to the image, you can then use the Internet*() API calls to go and grab that file. Since both objects use the
same internet cache, if web browser has already downloaded the file then this will simply pull back the local copy of
the file.
To grab the file use the InternetOpen(), InternetOpenUrl(), InternetReadFile() and InternetCloseHandle() API calls.
Hope this helps,
Mike
