[HELP] Creating a simple web bot/macro for personal use.. Where to start?

[wagooza]

If anybody can help, what is the best way to increase the downloads of a particular file on a website?

Currently I am using a simple Firefox macro (imacro plugin) to goto a site, and download a file. Then change proxy.

I have some programming skills, so if there is a simple way I can code something to do this automatically, that'll be great. I dont mind learning something new, I just need to know where to start... I dont need a UI, since I'll be the only one using this.

Please Heeelllppp o great bhw masters!!

Can this be done using PHP on my localhost?
I ask because that'll have the least learning curve for me as I know my way around PHP.. Although I dont know how to change proxies with this approach..

You could start learning selenium webdriver and PHP is a good language to work with almost every Web Bots. I make my bots with java.

Ps.: I tried post links about it but I can't.

Thanks both of you.
I'll start by looking into selenium, and maybe move on to Python or Java.
