Answer 1

If you're using ASP.NET 2.0, you can do this with cross-page posting.

Edit: I missed the fact that you're asking about an external page. For that I think you'd need to have your ASP.NET page gen up an HTML form whose action is set to the remote URL and method is set to POST. (Using cross-page posting, this could even be a different page with no UI, only hidden form elements.) Then add a bit of javascript to submit the form as soon as the postback result was received on the client.
