First wget doesn't understand IPX so there's no reason for it to try to load it. Second "This program cannot be run in DOS mode" is the standard message all windows programs prints when tried to run in DOS mode. Since cygwin's wget is a windows program you should not run it in DOS see if you have any PIF file around that enables DOS mode and that you're actually using cygwin's wget. Output from `cygcheck wget` and `which -a wget` may help you further troubleshooting. > Steve Kelem > -- Med venlig hilsen / Kind regards Hack Kampbjørn -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
