Is there a problem from your website or an attack from a man-in-the-middle ( many problems to download anything from any mirror around the world and not only unetbootin, my CD-ROM device even not recognized when I plug it in the usb slot of my computer: dire in need, please anyone down there rescue me?

My OS is a 100% free OS based on UBUNTU.

Note that bash requires quoting certain characters; a space in a filename must be escaped for the argument to be handled as a single argument. Try this instead:

wget 'unetbootin.sourceforge.net/unetbooti-linux-latest--2014-03-16 22:10:45--'

The quotes tell bash to handle the entire thing as one argument. Hopefully wget will turn the space into the %20 that is needed in URL quoting, but it may not.

note for reference that the correct command would have been:

wget http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/unetbootin-linux-latest

which works fine for me. but no this doesn't seem to be a bug or a security vulnerability
