You could do something with the --no-remove-listing option, like:
wget --no-remove-listing \
ftp://ftp.symantec.com/AVDEFS/norton_antivirus/xdb/fred*
or:
wget --no-remove-listing \
ftp://ftp.symantec.com/AVDEFS/norton_antivirus/xdb/
Then, look at the resulting ".listing" file (and/or "index.html",
depending), extract the name (and/or URL) of the file you'd like, and
use it in a second Wget command. The details would depend on your OS,
which I must have missed (along with the Wget version you're using). (I
assume that a DCL example procedure would not be of much use to you, but
that's what I'd write.)
