Ouch, I wasn't aware that we were talking about an FTP site. I'm afraid fixing this is not easy because Wget is getting the local time from LIST and UTC from the file system. When Wget is modified to use MLST/MDTM, this problem with go away. Until then, if old files really never change, could you simply use `-nc'? > The old files never change.

It continues to amaze me how many people use Wget on Windows. Anyway, thanks for the detailed bug report.
