There are many different approaches for displaying html content in a 
gtk+ application.  You can try
using gtkmozembed, which allows you to embed mozilla within your 
application.  You can also
try gtkhtml.  gtkmozembed is not likely going to work as well if you 
want to port to win32 although
it is not impossible (http://severna.homeip.net/gtkmozwin32.php); but 
also not without bugs :-)

Gstreamer maybe?  Depends on what you want though.

I use libcurl (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/) but there is also the gnet 
library (http://www.gnetlibrary.org/)

hope this helps,
