Probably your test.txt is saved in Unicode UCS-2 charset by Notepad. I can nearly reproduce your error under Linux, with wget 1.9.1 and an UCS-2 list of URLs: | $ cat test.txt | hex | FF FE 68 00 74 00 74 00 70 00 3A 00 2F 00 2F 00 77 00 77 00 77 00 2E | 00 67 00 6E 00 75 00 2E 00 6F 00 72 00 67 00 | | $ cat test.txt | iconv -f ucs-2 | http://www.gnu.org | | $ wget -i test.txt | test.txt: Invalid URL ÿþh: Unsupported scheme | No URLs found in test.txt. With Notepad, do a "Save as..." and change "Encoding:" from "Unicode" to "ANSI". It should save an Ascii file. Bye!
