I thought that setting up external depth level to 1 will limit downloading the
whole web to 1 external level (that it "more important"). Since httrack with
Your settings is now downloading external pages without "go everywhere" on,
You have right.

...It is working but it is just downloadink dozens of MB of mp'3s form
audio.cbsnews.com/ (maybe linked to some external page, don't think that there
is a link to them from cssbeauty). This catalog has 60 MB at the moment, and
still many mp3's to download. Will adding -* to filters do the job ? (then
setting external depth 1, according to manual "it is overriding all other
options (filters and default engine limiter)" - so it should still download
one external level, with graphics (+*.giv and other formats added to the
filter) 
but won't download mp3... ?
Should I add +*.css to filters ?
