If I understand your questions correctly, your download is probably
thwarted by "anti-leech" software.

Most anti-leechers can be defeated with some of these:

1. Set User-Agent to something Netscape or IE use (`--user-agent');

2. Set `Referer' to the referring page (usually the directory listing)
   or to some page they expect to be the referring page.
   (`--referer');

3. Respect the site cookies.  (`--load-cookies', `--save-cookies' in
   Wget 1.7).


Simply using #1 defeats most of them.  #1 and #2 beat all I've
encountered so far.  I've named #3 for completeness because there are
sites out there that depend on the cookies working.
