The $() construct means "run this command and put the results in the
variable to the left of the = sign. In your case, I'm guessing the which
command isn't found or something weird so that the WGET variable isn't set.
You were on the right path, just remove the $() and see if it works, so:
WGET=/cygdrive/d/unattended-4.6/tools/wget.exe
and see how that goes.
