I have been trying to mirror a few sites for the past few weeks, but have been
struggling to get it right, even after reading all the various help and faq
pages

All i want to do is mirror the site and grab the html only.
2 example sites are:

<http://z15.invisionfree.com/I_Love_It_Loud/index.php>?
<http://z3.invisionfree.com/House_Of_Bootlegs/index.php>?
Both require form based login details

the pages that are required in the capture all look like this :

<http://z15.invisionfree.com/I_Love_It_Loud/index.php?showforum>=*
<http://z15.invisionfree.com/I_Love_It_Loud/index.php?showtopic>=*

with the * being a numeric value


Every time i try a capture httrack does something different. either it only
captures the login page multiple times, or on the odd occassion it will
succesfully capture 50 or so pages correctly before capturing the rest as
login pages. 
When i browse the mirrored site and input login details it just takes me to
the online site, which i don't want to do.

Any help would be appreciated. I know it's probably me not doing something
right   :)
