Bad directories :
- Thanks for the (to be done later) bug fix of directories :)

Slow update :
- Ah yes, that might be it, all pages are perl files (.pl)
with query strings. But that still does not explain why only
1 connection is used at a time? I'm thinking it would be
faster to edit the new.* files and let it reget (not update)
all html files, then it can just update the graphics, that
should speed things up a lot. (Any ideas?)

No link between graphic <-> html :
- If I can speed up the update, I think the weird downloads
will probably disappear :)

Losing info in new.* files :
- Unfortunately I do not cancel the download and let it
finish, but rather just disconnect at a specific time.
httrack will realise this and produce errors, but, I
believe, not then update them in the new.* files to simply
retry (not sure how it works). A possible cause for this is
that the next night I do not do the update, but simply
continue an interrupted process as I cannot do another
update as it would take too long. So somehow in doing this
httrack "loses" which graphics have already been downloaded.

I think points 2,3 & 4 could be corrected by speeding up the
update, or somehow get httrack to not try update existing
graphic files.

How does httrack decide which files to continue downloading?
