The website is actually www.informit.com.
It require logging in at
https://secure.safaribooksonline.com/promo.asp?code=ITT03&portal=informit&a=0
After logging in, then the website becomes similar to
booksonline.com which I edit slightly.
My public library's electronic access which also
require logging in.

Putting quotes around the url got rid of your
"Invalid parameter" errors.
I just tried accessing the url you are trying to
wget and received an
http 500 response. I also tried accessing
http://proquest.booksonline.com/ and never got a
response.
According to your output, wget got back a 0 length
response. I would
check your web server and make sure it is working
properly.
