You may want to check out Back Street Browser.
http://www.spadixbd.com/backstreet/ (boy I hope this doesn't split)<G>
"It is a free, powerful offline browser. A high-speed, multi-threading
website download and viewing program. By making multiple simultaneous server
requests, BackStreet Browser can quickly download entire website or part of
a site including HTML, graphics, Java Applets, sound and other user
definable files, and saves all the files in your hard drive, either in their
native format, or as a compressed ZIP file and view offline. "
