You will also get a 404 error if you are using ipv6 and the server only accepts ipv4   To use ipv4  make a request adding -4   wget -4 http   www php net get php-5 4 13 tar gz from this mirror

I had the same problem with a Google Docs URL  Enclosing the URL in quotes did the trick for me   wget  https   docs google com spreadsheets export format tsv amp id 1sSi9f6m-zKteoXA4r4Yq-zfdmL4rjlZRt38mejpdhC23  -O sheet tsv

Wget 404 error also always happens if you want to download the pages from Wordpress-website by typing  wget -r http   somewebsite com   If this website is built using Wordpress you ll get such an error   ERROR 404  Not Found    There s no way to mirror Wordpress-website because the website content is stored in the database and wget is not able to grab  php files  That s why you get Wget 404 error   I know it s not this question s case  because Sam only wants to download a single picture  but it can be helpful for others

You need to add the referer field in the headers of the HTTP request  With wget  you just need the --header arg    wget http   www icerts com images logo jpg --header  Referer  www icerts com    And the result     --2011-10-02 02 00 18--  http   www icerts com images logo jpg R  solution de www icerts com  www icerts com     97 74 86 3 Connexion vers www icerts com  www icerts com  97 74 86 3  80   connect    requ  te HTTP transmise  en attente de la r  ponse   200 OK Longueur  6102  6 0K   image jpeg  Sauvegarde en     logo jpg
