Wget, download file from site's folder.

Ok, this is quite weird.

wget -r mysite.com/mylink/

should get all the files recursively from the 'mylink' folder.
The problem is that wget saves an index.html file!
When I open this index.html with my browser I realize that it shows all the files in the current folder (plus an option to move up a folder)
Note that I am talking about a HTPP server not FTP.
The thing is that by giving

wget mysite.com/mylink/ICON.png

it does download it normally. What is the problem?

Recursive wget using html works by pulling urls out of links in index.html.
HTTP does not have the capability to list files in a directory
