Stock Quote Screener

I need a simple Stock Screener application that will do the following:

1 – Download End-of-Day Stock prices from the Internet (free sources)
(Select only Stock Prices within a given range)

2 – Flag Stocks where price movement from the previous day is greater
than a specified threshold

3 – Write the output Stock Quotes to a CSV file

4 – Parse the output to create specific URL for viewing the Stock
Chart (Example: http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/quickchart/quickchart.asp?symb=csco&sid=0&o_symb=csco&freq=2&time=12

5 – Write the Stock Chart Page to an output file for offline viewing.

All above steps can be done online (interactive) or automatically as a nightly Batch job (background task).
