About Blue Crab
A very versatile program that you can use to copy the contents of a website to your computer, in whole or part. Applications of this functionality include:

- Conduct fast offline browsing without an Internet connection.
- Create snapshots of websites for historical archiving.
- Collect specific types of resources such as images, MP3s or PDFs.
- Search current content more thoroughly than a search engine right on your own computer.
- Check a site for broken links, or generate HTML site maps.
Blue Crab provides the option to receive email notifications of a download in progress, and can display each page encountered during a download in its own web window or your default web browser.
- Blue Crab can also be used to batch download URLs and create full page images of URLs in various formats (JPEG, TIFF, PNG, etc.).

Blue Crab is gentle on the server it processes because it grabs only one resource at a time. Moreover Blue Crab can be configured to moderate the rate of grabbing even further.

What’s New in this Version
- Improved the speed of the media grabber by avoiding unnecessary downloads (such as resources of other types or to display images for the slideshow.)
- The media grabber slideshow has been extended to work with media types movies and PDFs.
- Download progress of redirected urls is now displayed in the media grabber (and all “quicker grabber” windows in general.)
- Improved the “completeness” of the media grabber by extending the method of determining media of particular types.
