I use a program called httpget to grab URLs that use the HTTP protocol.

Someone else mentioned Perl.  Not to be contentious, but when I have to
write this sort of stuff (and I often do in applications for which httpget
isn't well-suited), I use Python.  No need to grab anything, since Python
comes with RH (version 1.4 is in RH 5.0).  There are a couple examples that
demonstrate different aspects of downloading in the Demo Scripts section of

    http://orca.automatrix.com/~skip/python/

The main Python web site is at

    http://www.python.org/

You'll find all sorts of links to a tutorial, mailing lists, contributed
software, etc.
