Hi, the 20 or so URLs I'm mirroring have many links to 
external sites that I don't want to mirror - some point to 
huge news sites! Having done a mirror I've set exclusion 
scan rules based on sites that were mirrored but that I 
didn't want. My scan rules are below, are these really 
causing WinHTTrack to crash and if so is there an easier 
way to set them up? Apologies for the long post. dnt
