I want to use wget to grab the following web page: http://www.cybersyndrome.net/pla5.html In my case, my ISP has bocked this webpage, but I can use tor to access it. In order to grab this webpage for my further treatment, the first step is using a command-line downloading tool, such as wget, to grab this webpage to my local computer. But the Tor itself works as a socks proxy server. OTOH, I've also learned that curl support socks4/5 proxy, and I use the following command under my cygwin console: curl --socks5 127.0.0.1:9050 http://www.cybersyndrome.net/pla5.html But I meet the following error: ----------------------------- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <TITLE>302 Found</TITLE> </HEAD><BODY> <H1>Found</H1> The document has moved <A HREF="http://www8.big.or.jp/~000/CyberSyndrome/error40 4.html">here</A>.<P> </BODY></HTML> ----------------------------- Nevertheless, I can use firefox with Tor enabled to access this webpage. What's the reason and how can I grab this webpage just by a command-line downloading tool?
