+    ORIGINAL ANSWER FROM 9th June 2012
+
+    If you are looking to download the Oracle JDK from the command line using wget, there is a workaround. Run the wget command as follows:
+
+    wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7/jdk-7-linux-x64.tar.gz"
+    Be sure to replace the download link with the correct one for the version you are downloading.
