Free software for site backup and offline browsing

HTTrack is a free and easy-to-use offline browser utility, copying Web sites from the Internet for offline browsing.

It allows you to download the entire World Wide Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site’s relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the "mirrored" website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads. HTTrack is fully configurable, and has an integrated help system. The interface is very simple and is characterized by a high degree of functionality.

The software can be very useful as by beginners as by experienced computer users.
