I am trying to do this with wget:

Problem: the site takes FOREVER to complete its download. Dribble,
dribble, dribble. Occasionally is just stops. And wget hangs.
I fired this web page up in Firefox ten minutes ago and it is still
loading!
Is there a way to get wget to just time out after a while?
curl has -m option for that
Hi Vladimir,
I just finished incorporating this in to a huge updates script
I wrote. It is working marvelously. Thank you!
