wget downloads different file than browser from same URL

wget downloads different file than browser from same URL

When downloading the Hard Disk utility tool off Seagate's website I noticed something truly strange.

The Seatools (Linux) link on that site links directly to a .run file which, on my system, firefox doesn't seem to understand as a file to download, instead displaying it as text.

When saving it using "Save link as..." i get the usable installer binary. However when using wget to download the same link, I get a slightly smaller file which cannot be executed due to "exec format error".

What could be the reason for this weird behavior of wget?
