I have been playing with "Web Extractor", the trial version. I have not made 
it work properly.

I am going back to the documentation to try to determine what I am doing 
wrong. I will probably spend the $30 shareware IF I can make the trial work!

My problem seems to be in defining proper boundaries. I cannot seem to keep 
it focused where I want it to download. Fortunately it does have a Stop 
button. I have about 150G of workspace on a data drive so that has kept me 
out of trouble with my system drive. The program initiates multiple threads 
to speed things up and it can really swamp you with things you don't care 
about. If you are unfortunate enough to fall into a porn cascade it is like 
stepping into a black hole! The download seems to deliver virii without 
going through Norton.

I am sure that the problems are mine, not the programs, but I have deferred 
further testing until I bring up a low impact machine to do any more 
testing.

Also, my XP Pro machine has the option of "Make website available offline" 
sometimes, but I have not investigated this yet. This link 
http://www.oz1bxm.dk/PIC/628uart.htm offers the option but does not follow 
the links regardless of the depth set.

This page http://www.qsl.net/zl1bpu/micro/Rotator/Index.htm (a project I 
would like to duplicate in PIC) does not offer the option for offline 
availability. I don't yet know what determines the offline availability. The 
pages saved are easily deleted from the same menu that allows the save or 
all at once with the disk clean up in system tools. So far I have not 
located where the files are kept so that I can archive a copy of a project.
