Description

I need 2 perl scripts that are to be run on a win vista x64 system (not perl 2 exe, i need .pl)

The first would navigate to a url and download all the images from each thread into a designated folder and it would keep doing this repeatidly (never ending it must refresh and download all images again(providing it isnt the same image as the one already downloaded to save bandwidth and again while checking the main url for more threads).

The second would navigate to a single url and download all the images and then refresh, once again making sure it doesnt download images that have already been downloaded to avoid wasting bandwidth.

Here is an example of the site that would be used to download all the images from http://img.4chan.org/b/ the script must only download images from threads and not ones that are in the header...etc...etc

This can be coded in 20 minutes easily and I code perl myself so don't try and take me for a james blunt.

I would prefer British/American freelancers only. Don't bother bidding if you arent.

I got plenty of Perl scraper experience, and am a British freelancer familiar with that site. I don't have any Windows experince, but as long as LWP::UserAgent is available my scripts should be portable.

I've got a script that pretty much does this already, all it needs is a few modifications and its exactly what you asked for.

I've experience on slurping whole sites using Perl in the past (although not here). I'm bidding low as I want to make a name here in GAF. Besides, if you're a perl programmer, you'd appreciate getting clean code from someone who knows their stuff.
