''wget [option]... ...''
So I type cmd into my windows 7. and type wget http://hotfiles.com/some/file.rar
into it?

It depends. This will work only if you put wget.exe into one of system paths mentioned in %PATH%
Otherwise you should use full path to wget.

and -O c:\path\to_dowloaded\file.rar in order to know where the file is downloaded?

Yep.

But what gets me lost, if i've got the previous stuff right, is the unpack.exe you're talking about, where is it to be found? is it an application that unpacks rar from the CLI?
[/QUOTE]
unpack - I used generic name.
Check out rarlab.com or google for any CLI unpacker. If i remember correctly there is included CLI wersion with normal winrar.

And the other problem I have, is how does this relate to a ZP GUI? Is this introduced as an own program or own script? I'm guessing it's not a script because a script asks me for a URL and I'm assuming it's looking for a secure area I might have on localhost or a site i've setup so that only my ip can access. So it must be 'own program', but what would I introduce here, something as simple as ''wget http://hotfiles.com/some/file.rar''? And while I'm at it, why does this ask me for instance of ip and instance of port if its an exe?
am i heading in the right direction? just goes to show how insistants noobs can be :-)[/QUOTE]
yep, own program.
It's not asking for instance. There is option to pass this this as param (if you wrote some own program which required - so the program could know which instance is calling it)
