Should you desire to download an entire site, you can set program to run before going to bed. When you wake up next morning all information will already reside on your computer, making for a fast and pleasant perusal of all material.

Getbot comes as shareware with limited functionality, which means you can try program for free, but if you decide to keep it, or want all features, then you must pay $19.

On bad side, it's a memory hog, so be prepared for a restart or two when using it. GetBot is a decent starter program... but if you want real power for downloading websites to view offline, check out www.httrack.com I've found it to be MUCH more versatile... and, it's 100% no cost :-)
