WebBrowser hook for actual retrieval?

Subject:WebBrowser hook for actual retrieval?

Is there an event hook in TWebBrowser that I can use to intercept the
actual retrieval of a file?

When a link is clicked and a new page is requested, normally all the
needed files (html, jpg, etc) are retrieved.  I'd like to intercept each
of those retrievals, grab each file from somewhere else in my own code,
and then return it back to WebBrowser.

The goal is to create a semi-secure help system so that I have complete
control, with help only available to a running version of my app.  The
actual files would not be in an HTML space, but rather in a secure FTP
location where prying competitive eyes wouldn't have easy access.

Suggestions?

THANKS!!!

Kevin
