Check out the gnomeVfs library: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/gnome-vfs/gnome-vfs-gnome-vfs-xfer.html

Libcurl is better & gnomeVfs is being phased out in favor of gvfs
and is not recommended in new projects personal gvfs will be just as bad.

Learn libcurl for network support
& Fuse for the filesystem side.

http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/

libcurl is a free and easy-to-use client-side URL transfer library, supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, TELNET, DICT, LDAP, LDAPS and FILE. libcurl supports SSL certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, FTP uploading, HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies, user+password authentication (Basic, Digest, NTLM, Negotiate, Kerberos4), file transfer resume, http proxy tunneling and more!
