Handling search scripts?

[Fred Holmes]

How can one handle the following, where the URL is a search script?  The 
URL will load the base page into one's browser correctly, but when it is 
used as an argument for WGET, WGET tries to use it as an output filename, 
and the filename contains invalid characters for Windows.  Wget 1.8.2 for 
Windows.

H:\WGET>WGET -N -r -l 2 -k -K -p -np -e
