When you say "clicking buttons" do you mean submit buttons, etc? If so you can use VB to create a GET or even POST transaction with the server in question. If you know what the scripts on the other sites are doing, you could probably do it directly in VB. For instance, if you use php to connect to a MySQL database, you can do this with VB, either directly or with the aid of a "helper" cgi script that forwards requests if it is firewalled.

BTW, VB2005 is actually VB.NET - this does have a separate forum.
