Overkill?  Just to download a few web pages?  You've got to be

Well, of all the things you can use threads for, this is probably the
simplest, so I don't see any reason to prefer asynchronous method
unless you're used to it.  One Queue for dispatching should be enough
to synchronize everything; maybe a Queue or simple lock at end as well
depending on the need.

The OP might not even care whether it's threaded or asynchronous.
