Since you are trying to download a file from an HTTP server, you need to use 
the TIdHTTP component, ie:\

    urlAddress.sprintf("http://ichart.finance.yahoo.com/table.csv?s=%s&d=%i&e=%i&f=%i&g=d&a=%i&b=%i&c=%i&ignore=.csv", 
m_ticker->Text.c_str(), end.MM(), end.DD(), end.YYYY(), start.MM(), 
start.DD(), start.YYYY());

    TFileStream *strm = new TFileStream(file2Write, fmCreate);
    try
    {
        SetCursorWait();
        IdHTTP1->Get(urlAddress, strm); //this downloads the file
    }
    __finally
    {
        delete strm;
    }
