you can copy directories with the ftp capabilities of internet explorer, why not do this?
except for the fashion you write the URL, ftp instead of usual www. its like copying items on your hard drive, select hit control c to copy and control v to paste it in a location you want it in, you can even create new folders and make an "old site pages" one for the person who wants a copy.

The wget utility is supposed to be able to do this in the background and make a copy for you starting in a directory of your choice. Good idea to make an empty directory to pull everything into and the directory structure on the web page will be duplicated.

Someone wants a copy of the old one, though. How do I do this in Filezilla, if anyone knows? I tried downloading the folders, but when I hit Applications on a folder, the "download" option is not available. I am unable to ftp into this server with PSFTP or FTP in Windows, or I would just do it from there. Any thoughts? Mainly, is this a Filezilla problem or something on the server?
