Yes, either Wget or some other third-party application. I'd assume that there are many applications that cover that particular niche, but apparent popularity of Wget under Windows seems to speak otherwise. GetRight is a full-featured applications comes to mind, but I don't really know if it has the feature you need, getting a bunch of URLs from a large list. (I'd assume it does, but I can't guarantee it.) > Any tips on the concept in my web page? I don't have Windows to try > it. Certainly something will go wrong? I don't see anything obvious that might go wrong. Nero will burn "long" file names with Joliet extensions, which any modern Linux will be happy to read. For getting Wget you might want to link directly to ftp://ftp.sunsite.dk/projects/wget/windows/wget-1.9.1b-complete.zip, so the user doesn't have to browse through Herold's page to see what it's about and what to get. Oh, and the Windows users should preferrably be ones who know how to run a command-line application, but I assume you've got that covered.
