I tried all the options incl. the capture URL where login details are taken
upon entering them in the forms and clicking the login button.
I have tried both with remember and without option.

In the mean time I found the logout link which is
.../Admin/Security/Logoff.aspx
I added this to exlusions but that didn't help either.

Today I found a commercial program with its own browser. When you login to the
site, the cookie is captured by the program and it actually downloads the
site!

So I now have the site offline (partially) but the main problem is that
Javascript funtions are so complicated that they don't work very accurate.

This is very bad since some of the articles contain multiple pages and when I
click #2 (for part 2) nothing happens.

The program rewrites all links so they would work offline but it's almost
impossible to find part 2 since the webpages are now called something with a
random number i.e. article_5505845.html.

Also some important parts have not been captured due difficult Javascript :(

I think HTTrack is a nice program but isn't up-to-date with todays websites
(complicated CMS systems). The un:pw@... is a rather old method and most
websites today don't use this type anymore. Atleast that's how I see /
experience it.

All the options within HTtrack are nice but it would be nice to see it was
more user friendly (read: noob friendly :) ).
A wizard would be nice too.

What I have now is better than nothing but still isn't 100% of the content I
want/need.
Maybe I'll try some other similar apps.

One last option is using MHT. But this would require a lot of work (manually
saving pages) and I'm not sure the internal links would work either.

If you would have any more suggestions be sure too post them but thanks a lot
for all the replies and help!
We need more ppl like you ;)
