I threw the following together and sent it to a friend via IM who compiled it for me and sent me back the executable.
So I now have everyone's profiles being downloaded to the laptop. When it's finished runing, I'll extract the results.
EDIT: This is the first time I've used curl, and it's slower than I thought. At this rate it's going to take 6 - 10 hours to get all the profiles.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
char URL[256];
int main() {
int n;
for (n = 1; n < 39115; n++) {
sprintf(URL, "curl http://www.lurkerlounge.com/forums/index.php?showuser=%d > profile%d.htm", n, n);
printf("%s\n", URL);
system(URL);
}
return 0;
}
