:-) If you really want to use wget on a windows box all you have to do is 
search for "unix tools for windows" and you will land up in the URL
http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/

But my personal favorite is firefox browser with an add on called "download 
them all". This gives you ability to save off anything from a web page to a 
desired directory with capabilities like pause and resume.

I don't know of one. However, I use Softcopy Librarian to download the
manuals. Now, I know a lot, from experimentation, about how IBM has set this
up. You can go to the site:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/df/zosv1r9paz.des 

This is the control file which is used by Softcopy Librarian to download the
PDF books. You will see a number of entries which start with:

ELM_DIRECT_NAME="..."

The information in this is the http address to place after
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com to get the PDF. E.g

ELM_DIRECT_NAME="/epubs/pdf/iea2g881.pdf"

is stored at:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/iea2g881.pdf 

Now, if only you had a Linux/UNIX system available, you could use wget with
some simple scripting to do the download for you. Something like:

wget http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/df/zosv1r9paz.des 

perl -p -e "if (m/\.pdf/) {
s/ELM_DIRECT_NAME//;
s/\"//g;
print; }" zosv1r9paz.des | \
while read i;do 
wget http://publib.boulder.ibm.com$i;done 

#and bob's your uncle.

No warranty expressed or implied.
