It also allows downloading websites via the secure protocol HTTPS as well as supporting connections via proxy servers. In case you are working on a website that requires HTTP or FTP authentication, you don't have to worry as the program supports these as well. It's important to note that JavaScript, Macromedia ash as well as CSS and CSS2 parsing is also supported

The built-in web server will allow you to share downloaded les and web pages with other computers as well as working remotely as you can easily access the data from another computer. It would be a rather useless task to download web page online only to end up with unorganized content. This is why the Surfof ine website downloader includes a les export wizard.
