bump... can someone please help?
I pay ~$50/mo for a Sprint data card. That way I don't have to be "offline".
What you'd have to do is basically rebuild that page on your harddrive.
I used to do that before I had high speed internet access.
Try HTTrack Website Copier...but be warned...some sites are REALLY big
Oh man... HTTrack only managed to save the "now loading" menu.
It didn't manage to save anything else
Are there any other solutions? I'm at my wits' end
Edit: I don't know if this will help, but here's more information:
When I visit the webpage via the Internet, through IE8, the page loads perfectly and there are no messages about Active X.
When I clicked on "Browse Mirrored Website" in HTTrack and the "webpage" was opened on IE8, the flash didn't load properly (only the bottom bar loaded) and this message appeared:
To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer. Click here for options.
After I clicked "Allow Blocked Content", only the "now loading" menu appeared and that was it. It stayed stuck there (the animation continued in its loop) and neither the rest of the flash nor the sounds and music got loaded at all.
like I wrote you need to include .flv and possibly .sfw. in the settings. those filetypes weren't around when httrack was programmed

I'm using the HTTrack version that was released in 2010. I think flash should be included.
Oh. Why didn't I think of that term? I've been trying to search for a program using the terms "download website".
Anyway, I tried googled "offline browser" and tried out the programs.
1. HTTrack managed to grab only a few files and that was it.
2. Backstreet Browser was absolutely useless. Nothing was grabbed.
3. WebCopier Pro 5.4 was the best. The only program that has ever managed to grab a video off the site and a few more pictures than the other programs. However, that was it.
There's no htm file for me to click in my Windows folder (that the program downloded the files into). There is also no guide as to how I can load the webpage I've downloaded using it.
(I copied the log and pasted it at the end of this message.)
4. Webstripper, renamed as PageNest, managed to grab enough files to load into the secnd "now loading" menu. That was the first time I tried using it.
After I changed the save directory and used PageNest to download the webpage again, something was wrong and I couldn't even get the first "now loading" page.
still stuck with no progress after a year. can anyone help? thanks
