[Bug-wget] Using wget command to download from dynamic urls

[Pratap Kumar Das]

Dear all,
I want to use two of the fantastic commands available in linux e.g. wget and
curl which help me download files with direct and straightforward links
right from the command prompt without going into any gui browser!
But unfortunately, I am not being able to download the files which would be
linked with dynamic urls (urls containing "*?*" in them which is probably
used for redirection).
The link to all the the IEEE papers also fall in this category...Eg.
http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp*?*
tp=&arnumber=5173739&isnumber=5173690
Also some times some of the useful software also come in this format E.g. "
http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.5.1&os=win&lang=en-US
"
While using wget to download files like this I get the error...(I am
attaching the complete log...)

*Command:* address@hidden:~> wget "

Can anybody suggest any workaround for these type of links?

Waiting for some positive responses,
