File Compare with URL

I have gone through HTTP, URL, and File Compare fairly thoroughly, and think this is probably for the wish list.

What I want is to be able to download a zip file from a website, compare it to one I already have, and if they are different run a batch file to take action and distribute its files. (And yes, eventually have the RMA do this /grin)

You have the each component, I just could not find a way to consolidate them. The URL test does not leave a trace of the downloaded zip file.

What I want is a bit beyond the scope of the program, but here is a more inline scenario: Comparing the contents of one URL test to another can be useful. A common hack is to redirect where a web server pulls its files from. If a hacker added an obscene comment to a modified web page in a new file location, I did not see a way to detect it.

Yes, we plan to implement new test that will be able to copare files/directories on local drive and on FTP/Web site
