    You can't open a remote file using this.

    You could use something like file_get_contents to get the page and then file_put_contents (or fwrite) to write it to a text file.

    This can't work, here's one of the methods how you can do it.
    
<?php
$file = file_get_contents("http://www.domaintools.com/msn.com");
$fp = fopen("c://misc.txt", "w+");
fwrite($fp, $file);
fclose($fp);
?>
