Offline Explorer is a really fine tool for downloading and viewing Websites offline. At its simplest, it lets you supply a URL and click the download button to download a page and all first-level links. At its most complex, it gives you complete control over including and excluding downloads from individual servers, folders, URLs, and pages. On large sites, even downloading first-level links can be a massive project, so building a keyword inclusion/exclusion list enables you to limit downloads to the most relevant parts of a site. In addition, you can provide megabyte and file limits for all downloads. Offline Explorer also lets you provide passwords for protected sites and schedule downloads at regular intervals. It comes with an internal browser (which requires Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher to be present on your machine), or you can view sites using any browser on your computer. Downloaded sites are stored as projects, enabling you to save and track multiple sites.
