How is the site protected? WWW-Auth or regular form? Cookies?
In any case, you can use fsockopen
[http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php] to simulate a
connection to the server. You just need to pass the right headers.
I prefer this way because it stays within PHP, without branching to *NIX
command line. This should work just fine on Windows or *NIX.
