Using WGET command line util problem

Expand Post »

When using WGET command line utility to download a file using HTTP
from a website, this works ok, but when i go to delete the file later, I am unable to.

e.g.

wget http://www.sophos.com/downloads/ide/ides.exe

This works ok, but then I cant delete it

Any ideas anyone?

Cheers

Sorry it took me so long to get back, but yes, it's the Windows version.
I'm currently running windows XP.

Re: Using WGET command line util problem

What exactly can't you delete? The wget program, or the program you downloaded?
