Check this:
<http://www.geekpedia.com/Question65_How-to-validate-an-URL-using-RegEx-in-C
sharp.html>

It uses this regex  

(([a-zA-Z][0-9a-zA-Z+\\-\\.]*:)?/{0,2}[0-9a-zA-Z;/?:@&=+$\\.\\-_!~*'()%]+)?(
#[0-9a-zA-Z;/?:@&=+$\\.\\-_!~*'()%]+)?

constructed according to the BNF grammar given in RFC 2396
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt).
