Ah, well, ONE thing: the configuration file is NOT 
being read if using -O option. If you want to setup 
the path, do a 'cd <directory>' and then enter the 
regular parameters without the '-O' option.

This may sound strange, but the config file is used 
generally to setup the output path (set path..) and I 
didn't want to cause collisions between the 
commandline path and the config file one.
But anyway, I'll have to fix this problem and cleanup 
the code...

If this still does not work, give the complete URL and 
you can also check this:
strings /usr/lib/libhttrack.so | grep "/etc"

this should display something like:
/usr/etc/httrack.conf

This is the last-ressort configuration file read.
