Thanks, i´ll have a look to wget. Let´s say the file you want to download is a compressed (tar, rar, zip, ...) is there a way to uncompress automatically the file you download daily (and automatically)? I don´t know if i made myself clear.

What i´m looking for is to download content to my iliad just pressing the icon on the iliad everyday, these content should be of course in the outbox folder in the computer, i´d like to grab everyday the news from http://www.syngrithy.org.uk/index.php?pT=2
but the files are in a tar, so is it posible to download the file (wget) and untar it automatically everyday. I hope it is clear now.

Thanks for your help.
