Retrieving patches with wget

Did Sun change something on their sunsolve site? I used to be able to
download patches using wget and it doesn't seem to work now. All I get
is a listing of the patches which it promptly deletes. Does anyone have
a CURRENT method of getting patches via wget. I say current because the
older methods don't work.

I've tried using the following commands and their responses.
### Example 1 ####
#wget -m -L -nd -l2 -A 117907-01.zip \
--http-user=<myname> \
--http-passwd=<mypasswd> \
"http://sunsolve.sun.com/autopatch"

            => `autopatch'

Removing show.pl?target=raw-patches&display=plain since it should be
rejected.
