ceez Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Hello there fellow MSFN'ers!?!?Hope all is well...I am trying to automate the download of our spam filter software updates. These are simple text files located on a webpagehttp://turbogeeks.com/downloads/lists/the 3 files are:domainblacklist.txtipblacklist.txtsubject.txtof course, the full path is:http://turbogeeks.com/downloads/lists/domainblacklist.txthttp://turbogeeks.com/downloads/lists/ipblacklist.txthttp://turbogeeks.com/downloads/lists/subject.txtthe only command I tried was the copy command since it's the only one that sounds reasonable (in a weird way)copy "http://turbogeeks.com/downloads/lists/domainblacklist.txt" c:\updateand of course this is my output:http://turbogeeks.com/downloads/lists/domainblacklist.txtThe filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. 0 file(s) copied.How can I accomplish this? Is this possible?Thanks for your help,ceez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
