• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Downloading Script

Hi guys! Basically, I want to automate the download of a huge amount of Google Map information. I want to take an address like this:

http://mt.google.com/mt?v=w2.5&n=404&x=16773&y=24329&zoom=1

and download the .png file. The trick here is, though, that this is just one part of the google map - I need to download

&x=16773 through &x=16834
and
&y=24329 through &y=24397

If you notice, that's 61x68 (4148) images. Obviously, I don't have time to do that manually. I need something to automate this.

One idea was to write a batch file with a pair of for loops and some CMD line downloader. The only ones I can find though don't like the & signs in the middle of the string though...

Please advise. Either with the command line, or if some script already exists for a browser, I'd be very much obliged. Thanks guys!
