Default Obtaining web data

We are a manufacturer and we would like to keep track of our internet prices so we can advise people of the cheapest place to go for our products. I have downloaded and used up all trys with Auto Anywhere 5 but could only get it to physically open up a web page before copying and pasting information to a spread sheet. Is there any way of doing this silently without opening Internet explorer. We have also found that some websites use images for thier pricing. can Automate anywhere handle this?
