how to download a whole web site?

[Will Robinson]

That's what I'd like to do. Download a whole website to be able to check it out offline later when I'm disconnected from the web. Is it possible? A couple of examples:
I would like to be able to download a few sites for reading at my moms house when I go over there since she has no internet connection like a computer hardware review site with links to reviews pictures, pdf files with specs etc.....a couple of news sites complete with all the linked stories.

Also when I'm at work in my service truck I often run back to the house to surf through equipment manufacturers web sites to look up wiring diagrams and parts lists for the machines I work on. I'd love to be able to download the whole site and store it on my laptop for reference in the field....

So is it possible to get a whole site downloaded including all the linked pages, pictures, articles, graphs etc. etc. and then be able to open it up in the web browser as if I was connected to the net?
Anyone know how to do it?

Many thanks!

wget should do the trick. A quick google search yielded a windows version, though I've only ever used it under Linux myself.

If you use Firefox, it has a number of extensions available that should do the trick.
