This freezes for me and seems to stop downloading anything. My network monitor shows its not sending or receiving anything over the internet during this time. I let it go 30min after I already had 120+megs downloaded from a site without it finishing.
It also didn't seem to grab the css and javascript files the site uses for formatting, even though they were within one subfolder in the main directory I pointed the program at.
(which was set to search 10 deep)

Yeah, sure, why not. :P

Here it is:
http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/

it was set to download everything that was under the /prd/ folder up to 10 deep, I figured thatd cover it all.

*Sigh*
Since I can't seem to find a decent offline version of it anywhere...

It works ok (slow though) on win 7 64-bit.

Online help at http://blackninja2000.narod.ru/rus/webpump_help.html (Russian but QTranslate/Google help).

Did you test it on another site?

You can mirror a website to your hard-drive really fast with command line utility WGET (windows version freely downloadable at http://users.ugent.be/~bpuype/wget/).

For help, see:

Although a shareware, IMHO the best Windows web harvester still is Teleport Pro: http://www.tenmax.com/teleport/pro/

Nope. Just that one. I wanted it for reference when I'm without net access.

I don't know why it stopped working, but I'll mess with the options at some point and retry it.

Cool.
Thanks for that. I might give it a shot when I have time to set it up.
