Internet Snake - http://www.internetsnake.net/

Web Site Downloader - http://www.web-site-downloader.com/entire/

SurfOffline - http://www.surfoffline.com/

I haven't used any of them, so I can't comment on how good they are.  The second one is only $14.95.

Adobe Acrobat does it also if you have the writer.

Sure.  Open Adobe.  File, Open Webpage...  You can specify the entire site, how many levels, etc.  Works great.

Rick,

Thanks, I tried it with the following procedure: FILE, CREATE PDF, FROM WEB PAGE... and then you specify the levels, entire site, etc. (I couldn't find it the way you describe it, FILE/OPEN WEBPAGE)

Now, what I get is a PDF file of the website....not th eoriginal html file...anyways it's cool.

Thanks.

Rick,

I forgot to ask you, maybe ypu know this too. When capturing a website with Adobe Acrobat, do you know how to find the optimal page layout (8.5x11, etc) so that captured webpages are not broken?

Thanks.

Yes, it's a PDF, not HTML.  In Acrobat 5 it's File, Open Webpage.

Thanks for the suggestion. I find that Acrobat works much better in downloading a site than all of the offline browsers/downloaders I tested!

Regards.
