Default Excel - Auto update of daily web data into excel

Hi,

I want to set up an excel ssheet to automatically pull price data from a
website into a cell. Furthermore, each day I want the new price to be added
into the next available cell down from yesterday's update, in order for me to
keep a historical record and graph it.

Eg. on 2 Jan I want the script to update the gold price from
http://www.kitco.com/market/ to cell B5 and save. On 3 Jan I want it to
update the price into cell B6 and save, without overwriting B5, and so on.

Is this possible (using a macro or something), and if so what must I do.

Please provide easy to follow steps as I'm clueless! (-;

Thanks,
