Here's a free software that does the job.

The best one within limitations is Meta Offline Explorer Enterprise [within limitations cause some of the Java sites can beat it]. Do a search for it with "rapidshare" in quotes and you should find a link.

Don't use the free one, get a true crack. Very complex program, many options but if you get it you can run it first time on the regular settings.... with two exceptions

set # of pages to 0
set it to stay within the same server/domain

If you do #1 without doing 2, you WILL download the internet all septquillion terabytes of it.

Also, if a site offers zips of the sets... grab em that way, by hand.

hey everybody! I´ve downloaded the Offline Explorer Enterprise Edition and now I´m trying to get some stuff.....

But I´ve got a little problem .... :

I set # of pages to 0
And I set it to stay within the same server/domain


But the programm only downloads the pictures from the FREE TOUR section.......... Did I made any mistake ?????

Actually I wanted something more, and not only the FREE pictures.....

can somebody help ????

I use wget. It's a command line tool that comes with most linux distributions & cygwin.

wget -m --http-user=user --http-passwd=password www.site.com/members

1. start wizard and enter the members-url

2. uncheck levels limit

3. enter login/password in advanced settings

hope that helps
