Martin, I checked this out and looked for others, but what I can't figure is how to download, for example, the March magazine. This thing wants to download the entire web site, which not only takes a vary long time (even on a T1 line), but also takes up enormous disk space.

If there is a way to download only what I want (without sitting here throught the whole long process telling it over and over which links to skip), then I haven't discovered it yet. Any thoughts that might help me out here?

So far, this does NOT look like a better solution to me.

Now, I'm not arguing with the decision you guys made. It's Michel's site. I'm just a little puzzled by how this is a better solution (at least from my standpoint).
