Really, do you ``hackers'' really not know howto at least read the

There is no need for any script, only a few switches to wget.

Hint: -e robots=off

  Wow!  j00 R so 1337!  Hint:  -e clue=on

  Seriously, I truly phj33r your 4w3s0Me!!!one!1 man-page reading skills,
but how could you imagine that switch could possibly make the slightest
difference?  robots.txt is enforced (or ignored) by the client.  If a server
returns a 403 or doesn't, depending on what UserAgent you specified, then
how could making the client ignore robots.txt somehow magically make the
server not return a 403 when you try to fetch a page?

  If you think that a switch that makes no difference to the data going over
the wire could affect the response given to an otherwise identical protocol
request sent back by the server, you must think they're using IP over ESP as
a transport layer.  Which rfc was that again?

  Or perhaps you just don't understand the first thing about the
client-server model of system architecture.  In which case you're in no
position to go around calling other people hackers in sarcastic quote
marks[*].

  Anyway, this is a great illustration of the dangers of posting smartarse
replies without actually having TRIED what you claim will work.  Let me
*prove* it: here's what happens if you try and wget the list of cached page,
first with no switches, then with -e but no -U, then with -U but no -e.


You have failed to understand the 'hint' part.  It was a hint at ONE
of the switches to use..

As you apparently have not read the manpage for wget, here is the full command.

wget -e robots=off -Hr -nd -np --domains=72.14.203.104 -U Mozilla

Now please go snarf down the interweb.
