Wgetter or somethign similar

I am working on a new website (for VC not DF) and we would like to host as many downloads for VC as we possibly can... I have used wgetter as a means for doing this whilst staff at other sites.. basically what it does is you enter a url of a file u want an your web server on and click start download, it downloads the file to the FTP directory all ready for you to do what you like with it. Its a quick way to mirror files.

I would like to install this or somethign that does the same thing on our web server. Unfortunately wget requires compilation in C or something like that, so both us and our web hosting company cant do it. So we tried to make our own script, our PHP guy got a basic thing going, except there was alot of errors with it, like when a file was downloaded onto the server you can see it there thru FTP but when trying to download it there was a 404 error for sum reason...

Anyway, does anyone know how to get wgetter going or getting this php script going or a script similar to wgetter?

Thx
