[thelist] creating browsable snapshot of a website on cd-rom

[aardvark]

so a few weeks ago i was looking around to find something to download 
my trip to spain photo archive... it's a crappy homemade script, and 
it's full of query string values... but i wanted to burn it to CD to 
send to a friend who has no internet connection other than cafes...

i tried a few tools, like black widow and the like, and was generally 
dissatisfied...

so i downloaded the latest build of firefox...

and then i downloaded a neat add-on called SpiderZilla, which is 
really Httrack wrapped up in a UI...

i won't be looking back anytime soon... it did everything i needed 
without any additional configuration...
