Huh? Opera is doing special encoding for some types of web addresses and you hoped that disabling ALL encoding would somehow make wget do the same thing? If special encoding is required: 1) someone has to write the code in wget to perform that encoding and 2) it has to be ENabled (not DISabled). Tony
