Monday and Tuesday after leaving my computer on for a while, I came back and it had rebooted. I ran a virus scan with updated definitions and nothing came up. Tuesday evening, the computer turned off while I was using it. Wednesday, the computer (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jul-05, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Doh! It looks as though, once again, you're correct. As it turns out, the old "file.bat" accessed a location on the network, rather than the internet. Darn it. Thanks for ending my wild goose chase, though. Dave! (21 years ago, 30-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) That works if the site is on your windows network, so you can access it as \\hostname\path\to\file... But if it's not available, I don't think it's doable...

(...) Dave, I'm pretty sure you can't do it without an external program. If you have FTP access to the file, you can use the command-line ftp program included with most msdos versions, otherwise you will need a non-dos program, I would recommend GNU (...)
