Are you doing --spider recursively ? In that case, wget HAS to download
HTML files, otherwise it can't find the links to recurse...

(Please DO NOT email me, I'm on the list)

When using the --spider option (GNU Wget 1.6), the URL is downloaded.
The doc says "it will not download the pages, just check that they are
there."

Please help, I need this functionality.

Thank you,

Tom Gordon
