Sorry for the late response, but here's a quick and dirt piece of code I call psget.ps1
#stinger is used here as an example only $yourURL = "http://downloadcenter.mcafee.com/products/mcafee-avert/stinger/stinger.exe"; $yourFile = "c:\temp\stinger.exe" $webclient = New-Object Net.WebClient $webclient.DownloadFile($yourURL,$yourFile) echo "Your download is now complete!" Hope that helps!
