How to use wget for downloading copy of the pages in that
case? How to get the proper cookies and how to get wget to
use them correctly? I use IE in PC/Windows and wget in
a unix computer. I could use Lynx in the unix computer
if needed.
(PC/Windows has Firefox but I cannot install anything new.
If Firefox has a downloader plugin suitable for forum
downloading, that would be ok.)

Firefox stores a cookies.txt file in the profile directory. In
Windows, I believe this is located in C:/Documents and
Settings/{username}/Application
Data/Mozilla/firefox/profiles/PROFILE/cookies.txt.
GNU Wget is compatible with this cookies file. Just use the
`--load-cookies file` option.
