Dreamer 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2004 Hi. I totaly agree with this cpying programs. Are usefull in many ways. Ofline browsing is good when your have dial-up and have internet based traffic. Shiet you only here about this in Romania does anyone have this kind of services ? I men buy the traffic that you make... blahh. i think is crap, but what shuold i do if this is the only service that i can get on my salary :DAnyho ... I'v come up with one site that has protective software that whon't let you copy their site with this kind of programs.. i think this is that they have many visitors and have a lot of trafic on them, because has interesting material on it.So, guys there is any way that we can cheat this with this kind of programs ?How? there are special ways to make this ?

aniketh 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2004 have any of you guys tried wget? according to me its one of the best, most versatile free site downloader there is. its open source, comes packaged with every distribution of linux (ok most), and there is even a windows version at sourceforge.

odomike 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2004 wow! i downloaded WinHttrack and now i can learn plenty of tutorials without connecting online. i'm on a dial-up connection and i running out of prepaid internet account so this thing is really a BIg help. and I am updating a website which I have not back-up, and i dont have to re-encode everything. :-) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Then I will be thinking of downloading the softs myself cos I really need something like that. If i can just read anything I want to read in websites without having to visity the websites, That will be real gr8. And does anyone here know whether these softf can download the databases and php codes of websites?  That will be real kool if they can do that. Will be of much help to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H3x 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2004 there is really no reason for it all it does is save the page to your HD but everyone can already do that even if you don't have DSL or cable there is no reason. only thing I can think of is if you wanted to take somebodys site and change something with it, but still.........

spirit_valley 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2004 I dont understand why it can be useful, since now most people have got an unlimited internet connexion with DSL <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not exactly... in some countries like Australia many people still uses dial-up connection.And it's faster to access the webpage when it's downloaded to your harddisk!

mrbradeli 0 Report post Posted December 22, 2004 MOzilla fire fox comes with a free website copier. I just used it to back up my old site on hostultra so I could but it here. It worked pefectly and didn't mess up the PHP stuff. I was suprsied beacsu most of the time when I tried to backup my websites with other programs it didn't work and it messed up the PHP thing and the content got stuck to the page.

michaleq 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 There is a slight problem, and it was even mentioned by someone. O tried downloading a whole section about pl/sql from techonthenet sites, and used teleport pro for it. Teleport pro is great, and i've used it many times before. But this time there was another problem - not the app itself.Normal website copiers work like this - they get a page, scan for links, and get sites that are linked, including images and everything else. Where the problem lies? The problem is that the problem generates http calls very fast and frequent. And a server that you receive from notices it! So one can think that it's a DOS attack (very fast and frequent calls to server to load it up fully), and cuts off the IP address that the calls from.That happened to me on techonthenet So be carefull about it...
