I've had a fasinating couple of hours here today

http://www.evenfallstudios.com/woodw...s_library.html


It only took me 1 minute to see the value and start downloading
everything in sight, before the site goes down. I used to link to
great sites like that but they always disappeared before I got back to
them. I have no more tragic losses now.


Ditto for me. What are you using to DL?


Firefox.


I'm using HTTrack and it's fetching at 200Kbps and I have 45 of
the .pdfs so far. I like HTT because I can set it up and it fetches
the entire website with no babysitting by me. After it finishes I then
have a local copy of the site which I can put on a CD/DVD and
have it forever.


Standard download speeds were about 165k max, less with half a dozen
going at once. When the DSL lights stopped flashing madly at me, I'd
DL a large handful more. I'll look at WinHTTrack. Sounds easier.


I wish I had known of this while rusty2l was still alive.


He's gone? I remember trying to get something from he website and it
was down, but I didn't know why. Bummer.
