Downloading all files from a web site

Anyone know of a good program that can be used to download several files from a website at one time? I want to queue up several dozen video lectures for some of my math and engineering courses, but I don't want to download them one by one. I know of Httracker, but I've been having some trouble with it. What are some others?

I use the DownThemAll add-on for Firefox. You can look at all the links on a webpage and filter out the ones you don't want, and it downloads them by splitting and downloading the separate files. It's great!

Downthemall rocks. I've also used Flashgot before with great success, but it is not itself a download manager...so you have to download one of those as well.

I used wget. It's a command line program, but it has all the control you'll ever need. Versions available for most platforms.

Yeah, I was using wget on linux. The problem was that I had copy/paste 35 links per class, and I was really tired of doing it.
