HttpUtility.UrlEncode in console application

Question

I'd like to use HttpUtility.UrlEncode in a console application, VB.NET, VS 2010 Beta 2.

System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(item)

Error message: 'HttpUtility' is not a member of 'Web'.

In this question Anjisan suggests to add a reference to System.Web, as follows:

1. In your solution explorer, right click on references
2. Choose "add reference"
3. In the "Add Reference" dialog box, use the .NET tab
4. Scroll down to System.Web, select that, and hit ok

However, I don't have a System.Web entry at that location.

Changing the project's Target Framework from ".NET Framework 4 Client Profile" to ".NET Framework 4.0" helped me, with .NET Framework 4 Client Profile as Target framework I was able to add System.Web 2.0 version by Browsing to C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 from Add reference window but doing the same for System.Web 4.0 dll gave a warning.
