Use PageNest Free Edition offline browser to copy websites and pages to your hard disk. PageNest will create an exact copy of virtually any page or site. Create archives of your favorite sites. Copy interesting or useful pages before they disappear from the internet. Browse the downloaded sites without needing to open an internet connection.

Designed to be easy to use, you can start a download in PageNest Free Edition with as few as two mouse clicks. It will grab the address of the current site from your internet browser, or by dragging and dropping a link. You can also, of course, type in a website address. There are options to choose between downloading a single poge or an entire site.

PageNest uses a fast multithreaded downloading engine with up to forty threads for the fastest downloads. The number of threads can easily be adjusted whilst downloading.

PageNest Free Edition maintains the original directory structure of the sites. Files are saved as standard html, jpeg, gif etc so they can be viewed in any suitable software. They can even be edited and re-uploaded. Dynamic files (php, asp, pl etc) are converted to HTML (or other file types as appropriate). You can view downloaded site in PageNests built in browser, or you can use your own browser - downloads are viewable in any browser. There is no need to run a server on your machine.

Sites are listed into a 'tree' to make them easy to organise, and previous downloads quick to find. Quickly find recent downloads in the 'recent download' list shown at start up (or at any time on the 'Welcome' tab).

PageNest Free edition has been developed from our existing WebStripper offline browser. WebStripper has been in development since 1998. This long history makes it very stable, reliable and bug free.

PageNest Free Edition is free for non commercial use. This means you can use it in the home, in not for profit organisations and in recognised education establishments.

It serves as an offline browser by copying web pages and even entire websites locally.

Pros: PageNest enables users to copy web pages and even entire web-sites to their local hard drive. In this way, a replica of an online web-site gets created locally, which you can access later on when you are no longer connected to the internet – thus, your favorite website is available offline. The process to save a website is simple and fairly easily done and all kinds of content is handled with ease - the ability to drag and drop the website link into the software is a great convenience. The offline browser is decent looking and is quite intuitive in the way that browsing takes place. The original directory structure of a website is maintained so things like a site-map etc. still remain valid in the offline version of the website. The directory structure also makes it easy to go in and pick up certain content that you might be interested in (without having to browse the offline website) for example you can go in and play a music file directly in your favorite media player. Saved websites are also viewable in standard internet browsers (because of the directory structure and therefore relative addressing being maintained).

Cons: Although your favorite website has been saved how often is it updated? Many websites such as a News website will update frequently and there is no mention of whether or not the local copies are updated. One can re-save the website but that is a waste of time. The local directory gets saved under the name of WebStripper and so can cause confusion if someone is looking over their local website repository. It is primarily for users who are not online for long periods but still need access to their favorite content. Remember also that saving too many media heavy websites can quickly reduce hard disk space.

Overall: 3 stars. Nice concept, but not for everyone, especially with increasing connection speeds and frequently updating websites.
