strings comparison issue

$

hi guys,
i am having a little strange( is a silly issue mostly) problem with handling of strings and files.
basically what im doing is i've a file on my server which has the login info for a user..
the program retrieves the file and compares it with the info entered..
now here is a sample filehttp://redemptionamerica.com/files/7...119811983.html
its a normal text file, which ive just given the extension .html.. u can open in notepad to see the line breaks there...
now i use the following code(inet control ) to retrieve the data and compare it..
pls point out the issue in this as although the info entered is same, it only passes the 1st or 2nd check but doesnt take the rest as equals..
i need to do some conversion i think..
Code:

        checknow = Inet1.OpenURL("Http://www.redemptionamerica.com/files/" & Text2.Text & ".html")
    Label12.Caption = "Verifying"
  Clipboard.Clear
  'copy info contained in html file
  Clipboard.SetText checknow
  Close #1
  'print the information to a ini file
  Open App.Path & "\" & "_check.ini" For Output As #1
  Print #1, checknow
  Close #1
  'to begin verification
  lines = Split(checknow, ";")
      If lines(0) = Text1.Text Then
      MsgBox "name correct"
      End If
      If InStr(1, lines(1), Text2.Text) Then 'as this is a number and not getting equal normally
      MsgBox "password correct"
      End If
      If lines(2) = Text3.Text Then
      MsgBox "mail correct"
      End If
      If lines(3) = Text4.Text Then
      MsgBox "done!!!"
      End If

i added different if's only to find where the issue was..
pls help me out
THANKS!!! :):)
