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:

4.html">here</A>.<P>

-----------------------------

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?

Thanks in advance.
