| Actually, I'm not a technician. But reading through the headers makes me think
GET seems the standard command to tell the webserver "hey, give me
something".
When I open a blank browser, put
<http://forum.httrack.com/readmsg/25780/index.html> in the URL field and press
enter, I GET the following results:

So -- no, there is no form method used at all.
To go sure I inspected the source code of the concerning website. There's no
form tag neither near the download link. That's just a plain a href, please
see below. I replaced the brackets to be able to send this message.
