transition from using IE to MSXML2.XMLHTTP"

Hey all,

I'm trying to transition away from using IE because as my list of fetching websites continues to grow things are just getting more and more slower and less reliable to complete the task. I've tried different kind of permutations unsuccessfully and I just can't even get it to convert the object-data into the specific pasted data...

Sub GetStuff()
Dim objXML As Object
Dim strData As String
Dim strResponse As String

 strData = "Request"
 Set objXML = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")

 objXML.Open "POST", "https://www.excelforum.com/excel-programming-vba-macros/" & strData, False
 objXML.Send
 strResponse = objXML.responsetext

        For i = 0 To 20
            With ActiveSheet
                .Cells(1 + i, 1) = strResponse.getelementsbyclassname("threadinfo").Item(i).innerText
            End With
        Next

'MsgBox strResponse

End Sub

Any help to get the data to paste row-by-row (doesn't need to be a table, just pasted like IE version) would be much appreciated..

Note: I have xml v6.0 and html object library reference enabled. If it can be done via WINhttp5.1, then its fine too!
I just need a working starting point where I can keep building on :p

Any help would be much appreciated!
