Take a look at libcurl. It is a C library, with C++ bindings.

The libcurl website includes a collection of examples in C, including one that copies a URL to a block of memory, getinmemory.c

For C++, the main page of the curlcpp binding at https://github.com/JosephP91/curlcpp shows an example of downloading a URL to a file.
