HTTrack can be run just as a EXE.

It does a great job, and can do everything your looking for.

I put this in here to get the autobiographer badge. I'm sure you understand, and am technically not cheating as you now know what kind of person I am.

I have a list of urls (over 100) of patch files from various sources that I need to download.

I need to create a batch script that will download these files and dump them all into the same directory.

I do not have administrative privileges on the system I need to download to, so it needs to be batch or similer solution.

I would love it if it would echo any errors to the screen and keep rolling on to the next download.

  You've specified the end goal, but you didn't really specify what part you need help with. Are you just looking for someone to write it for you?

  Ryan, sure. Or a link to one that I can hack.

  Oh, sorry! When I first read it I was thinking "bash" scripting. I'm a noob at batch scripting and wouldn't be of much help. My bad.

This worked, but sadly not on the network I was trying to do it from as the proxy caused issues.

Does curl work on windows?

Yes - there has been a win32 port available for years. See: curl.haxx.se for a version.
