I want to make a java web app that will access a secure aspx website and download any available files like pdf, jpeg, xml. I also have to know all the available files. What are the things I should learn, and where do I start? Thanks for the help.

Welcome to JavaRanch.

It sounds as if you're talking about screen scraping. IMO, the best Java library for programmatic web site access is jWebUnit.

So there I was, trapped in the jungle. And at the last minute, I was saved by this tiny ad:
