This tool just makes it possible to dl a complete site to your own pc, you then can check codes or take the site with you ofline easily, for whatever purpose you wish ;)

I&#39;ve never found one of those programs that worked really well anyway.
They miss lots of stuff.
Could be that I never bothered to actually configure it though :P

Is this better then HTTrack (http://www.httrack.com/)?

It works well for me, indeed sometimes misses a link but in general 99.8% copied well. Don&#39;t know the HTTrack, so sorry can&#39;t compare them :unsure:
