New User - How To FTP (Download) a EXE File
Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2002 19:46:50 -0700 (PDT)
How do you download a file from an FTP site. I'm trying to find a way to automate anti-virus downloads from SYMANTEC's ftp site using AutoIT and cURL. All I get is gibberish and a locked up PC. It's as though the executable I'm trying to download is being read as a text file.
Here's what I'm typing:
curl -u anonymous:vitotelephono.juno.com ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus//0724i32.exe
If I leave out the filename and I get a listing of the directory, so I know I'm getting to the site. What am I doing wrong? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
