Re: [Air-l] SW to store webpages
I've done a bit of downloading/archiving of entire Web sites before. I've used Webstripper & Webwhacker - both cost a small fee I think. Both products can do really well with smaller stand-alone sites (mostly what you're using it for) but I strongly discourage you to use these tools for larger sites (like media sites - even if you restrict it to 2 levels). I have found better luck when I switched to a Mac - DeepVacuum is great. One word of advice no matter which tool you use: back it up everyday & write it to CD ROM then get those files off your computer. During the EU elections I was pulling down content & keeping about a weeks worth of stuff before I backed it up & wrote it to CD (to save money & not have 10 CDs). Bad idea. My entire laptop harddrive died & I lost everything on my primary computer. Hard lesson. Good luck.
