wget will do exactly what you want. If you're on Linux you should
already have it installed. If not you can get it from
http://www.wget.org or a version for Windows is available at
http://www.interlog.com/~tcharron/wgetwin.html.
You want to use it with the --mirror option. From 'man wget'
--mirror
Turn on options suitable for mirroring. This option
turns on recursion and time-stamping, sets infinite
recursion depth and keeps FTP directory listings. It
is currently equivalent to -r -N -l inf -nr.
