Netcat comes to mind as a simple connection/traffic generator. It was
first made for Unix, but there is a Windows port at
http://www.vulnwatch.org/netcat/. One of the many things you can do
with it is make it connect to a web server and download a page:
C:\netcat>nc -d www.wireshark.org 80 < get-request.txt
Where get-request.txt has "GET /<enter>" in it (since netcat reads the
data to transmit from stdin). The -d parameter tells it to fall into
the background, which also supresses the output.
