Generic Company Place Holder Local Website Archive Lite
Local Website Archive is a useful utility that allows you to download web pages to your local hard drive. While this can be accomplished via the "save page" option in most browsers, Local Website Archive Lite (free) offers enough additional features and functionality that it's well worth installing.
The advantages of using Local Website Archive Lite over just "saving a page" are that it places all of your saved information in a single, easily accessible place, and allows you to categorize the saved pages in folders. Saving pages one-by-one can lead to a clutter of images, html, CSS, and so on. Further, Local Website Archive allows you to save PDF documents, and thus can aid in creating an organized library of them—useful for things like documentation, in my experience.
Further, Local Website Archive has search feature, which can make it easy to extract or locate data within a collection of saved pages, on the level of a single file, a folder, or a hierarchy of folders. Unfortunately, it lacks some refinements such as case sensitivity or searching for a whole word only.. looking for "die" will return documents containing "diet" or "diecast," for example.
The Lite edition of Local Website Archive is functional enough that I've used it for a long time without feeling limited. The 30€ Pro version offers features such as queuing pages for saving, among other things.
At a price of nothing, I strongly recommend Local Website Archive Lite if you save Web pages even occasionally.
