here's what we used and it seemed to work.

don't forget the -U option to mimic the browser...

-L (relative links)
-E (html extension)
-U (user agent string)
-k (convert links for local viewing)
-r (recursive)
-QXXm (quota of XX megs)

wget -r -L -E -U "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)" -k -Q10k
