Re: [Bug-wget] Problem using GNU Wget 1.11.4 Windows version

[Paul Wratt]

you should be using at least the last know stable version 1.12 but
that is still at least 5 years old
1.13 versions are from within the last 12+months

but I have a feeling that the sha256sum you are using is not right,
verify against the md5 (maybe google for it)
