1) Always post the ACTUAL command line used (or log file line two) so we know
what the site is, what ALL your settings are, etc.
2) Always post the URLs you're not getting and from what URL it is
referenced.
3) Always post anything USEFUL from the log file.
4) If you want everything use the near flag (get non-html files related) not
filters.
5) I always run with A) No External Pages so I know where the mirror ends.
With B) browser ID=msie 6 pulldown as some sites don't like a HTT one. With C)
Attempt to detect all links (for JS/CSS.) With D) Timeout=60, retry=9 to avoid
temporary network interruptions from deleting files.

HTT does a breath first search.
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breadth-first_search> Assuming links to page1
page2 ... are visible in the starting url it gets those two pages, then it
would get all files referenced including pages 3 and 4.

By level.

No mind readers here. #1 #2
