wget: Going down entire sites easily

Some tricks to bring down the sites you need automatically from the Internet to your computer.

Wget is a tool that comes in any linux, is used to download files from the Internet. Its basic form of use is: wget http://www.guatewireless.org/crack.exe

This is the way in which wget is normally used, but can also be used recursively, this is its hidden power. wget can connect to sites and downloading all the pages recursively (images and other data) that are link on the homepage: 

  wget-r http://www.guatewireless.org/

However, there are many places which we refuse to sit down. To prevent this, the sites verify the identity of the browsers. To avoid such hassles wget have an option-U. 

  wget-r-p-U Mozilla http://www.guatewireless.org/

You should add the options-limit-rate = = and-wait. This is to pause between each page, because otherwise the owner of the site can realize that with a simple wget you're coming down the site completely. However, no one will notice if you limit the speed of download and make a pause between files. 

  wget - wait = 20 - limit-rate = 20K-r-p-U Mozilla http://www.guatewireless.org/

Use-no-parent

-No-parent this option ensures that wget not download files under the directory you wish to download.
