First you want to reject everything but that thread but not the non-print
verion: -* +*195377* -*showthread*

Second you want the thumbnail images (from all sites) so allow them also:
+mime:image/*

Third the links all have Don't Follow, so you  must disable robots.txt rules
(options -> spider -> spider)

Fouth, the attachements links are in the form:
<http://cdn.forexfactory.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=315858&d=1253110844>
(no pattern) so allow +*/attachment.*
You'll get the attached images since you already allowed them. If you want the
attached templates and zip files: +*.zip +*.tpl

> the links are not localized....
Always set options -> build -> no external pages so anything you don't get
will be obvious.
