Great Firefox add-on . . . DownThemAll

[hmember]

First of all, if you're not using Firefox as your internet browser, consider downloading and using this free and friendly open-source program instead of some of the inferior alternatives (Internet Explorer, example). Firefox is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Secondly, once you're using Firefox, download and install some of the great add-ons that make Firefox so excellent. Here's a prime example: DownThemAll at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/201 . . . this allows you to download all the pictures on a given webpage, or all the zipped files available on a given webpage.

I use and enjoy Marv Klotz's utilities available here: http://www.myvirtualnetwork.com/mklotz/#shop . Instead of clicking on and downloading each utility one at a time, I used DownThemAll and (duh) downloaded them all in one fell swoop. You may get some stuff that you didn't need -- delete that and just keep the zipped files.

I downloaded them for my own private use; it is nice to have them all off-line.

2nd DTA-- works great when you run across a directory full of plans or pictures or whatever. You can also set a filter of *.zip or *.pdf and only get the files you want. WinHTTrack is good for snagging copies of web pages and/or entire web sites, but sometimes takes a little dinking with the settings to get what you want.
