Script to get all file on a url

[Midget]

I'm trying to find a way to automatically download all the files from the AV update site so that they are hosted onsite.

ie i want a script to go to this website and download all files and stop them in a directory.

anyone have any ideas to save me having to manually do it?

Use wget?

You could also use wget to pull them thru your webcache and then delete them, so you don't end up with loads of ancient guff on disk. The option's in the manpage somewhere

I tried wget previously, but it fails, might be the proxy playing up though.

Set the proxy for wget in the wgetrc configuration file.

you can use the execwb command from the internetexplorer.application object:


dim ie
set ie.createobject("internetexplorer.application")
ie.visible=false
ie.navigateto("<url here>")
do while ie.busy=true
wscript.sleep 60
loop
ie.document.execwb("saveas",2,<destinationpathhere >)
ie.quit

obviously you would have to somehow enumerate all the files that exist on that url some how....
