I am trying to get this command to work

wget http://www.virtual-london.co.uk/schools/default.asp?schoolID=CookSch1

But every time I run that command I get it coming up with:

/usr/local/bin/wget: No match.

I am using wget 1.5.3

What I am trying to achieve actually is to download a cam image through HTTP
and then archive said image onto our site. I have tried to do this from the
webcam end but the image we want can't be transmitted via FTP. So my plan is
to use wget on our Unix mail server to d/l and rename the image so it is in
the format cam010101.jpg so each image downloaded is in date order, then I
was planning to use ncftp to transmit the image up to our W2K webserver.
Now I have found there is a windows version which raises 2 questions:

1. Can wget change the file name to include a date? If not I will have to go
the UNIX method?
2. How can I run it so it acts like crontab does on UNIX and schedules its
excution for once a day?

Any help would be useful.
