Assuming the computer was running Windows, you wouldn't need wget to perform HTTP requests in batch -- you could make a VBScript to do it (src: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/204759/http-get-in-vbs http://stackoverflow.com/questions/204759/http-get-in-vbs ). I would assume that Windows (and therefore everything in it) would be considered "authorized" in that case, but would the VBScript be considered unauthorized software? If that's the case, would you need to get approval every time to write macros to make your job more efficient? Is there actually a line drawn in the military about what is considered software?
