Thank you so much! It worked like a charm. You'll need Python 2 and the dateutil module if you are in Windows.

For those new to Python, after you install Python 2, just open your Python27/Scripts folder, open cmd from there (shift + right button) and install the module by typing pip install python-dateutil in the Windows terminal.

Then you can run the script by clicking with right button over clouddown.py, then "Edit with IDLE", and then Run > Run Module. Don't forget to update your USERNAME and PASSWORD in the script before running it. Also note that all the files will be downloaded in the same folder of the script, so make sure to create a folder and add the script inside before running it.
