Dear Xavier,

Thank you very much. I first tried using these filters:

+*.png +*.gif +*.jpg +*.css +*.js -ad.doubleclick.net/*-*
-* +*whitepapers* 
-*?*

I added the -*?* to prevent querystring links from 
downloading and that worked well. However, with those 
filters I only got images that contained the word 
whitepapers so then I tried using the filters you 
suggested, which are:

-* +*whitepapers* +*.gif +*.jpg +*.png +*.css +*.js
-*?*

and that worked just fine. I got only links that included 
whitepapers as well as all the images that go with each 
html page. It seems like the order in which the filters are 
listed is very important.

I think that it would be very useful for new users of 
HTTrack if you would include an explanation of this 
particular usage of filters in the filters section of your 
help file.

Thank you very much for your help and for a great program.

Regards,
Peter Drakes
