The best, free, web site downloader I found for Windows is from this web

site:

HTTrack Website Copier - Offline Browser -
http://httrack.com/

This web site has inexpensive, commercial web search tools:

Kryloff Technologies develops software to find, search, summarize and 
manage information -

Hope this helps,
Jamal
