HTTP 400 error on POST request getting token authentication

I am trying to authenticate my remote access app, I can successfully get the code in the first step but when I send the second post to https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token I get a 400 Bad Request. Here is the .net code I am using, anyone have any ideas why this might not be working?

 

 Protected Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        'If Request.QueryString("code") Then
        Dim strCode = Request.QueryString("code")
        Dim strToken = getToken(strCode)
        ltlText.Text = strToken
        'Else

        'End If
    End Sub

    Private Function getToken(code As String) As String
        Dim URI As String = "https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token"
        Dim body As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder()

        body.Append("code=" & HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(code) & "&")
        body.Append("grant_type=authorization_code&")
        body.Append("client_id=" & HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(clientKey) & "&")
        body.Append("client_secret=" & HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(clientSecret) & "&")
        body.Append("redirect_uri=" & HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(redirectURL))

        Dim result As String = HttpPost(URI, body.ToString())

        Return result
    End Function

You need to supply username and password as well and change grant type to password.

 

body.Append("username=" & HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(username))
 body.Append("password=" & HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(password + securitytoken))

If you are trying to get authentication token, you have to read this article: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_concepts_security.htm

Since buthfa seems to be on the same page as you, I am not sure if I am out of place here
