No, it's not working. It downloads part of the URL and creates a file named address@hidden which is 68 KB. I cannot wget to treat the string of characters as a whole URL. Please help, I really need to get this script working and the only place to download this file is from CNET. 


So... looks like it works, then. Your command shell isn't complaining
about weird command names, wget is clearly requesting the full and
correct URL, it follows redirections, and saves using the final
redirection URL (the latest sources wouldn't follow that last step -
it'd save using the request URI by default).

If you dislike the filename, then provided you have a recent enough
version of wget you can add the --content-disposition option if the
server provides a rename header ("Content-Disposition"); or else use -E
to have wget force the file name to end in .html

Thanks for your help.

hello,

the "&" character in the url is interpreted by your shell.

Try using something like:

wget "URL"

Cheers,
Giuseppe

Hello, I am having an issue downloading files via download links from
