Review
If you want to download an entire Web site or just a portion of one for offline reading, this is the app for you. QuadSucker/Web is a multithread downloader optimized for graphics, text, sound, and app files. The download was a little slow, but installation ran quickly. This app has a nicely arranged interface that fosters easy and intuitive use. When downloading an entire site, the interface's multiple panes reflect the activity in each thread, and the graphics appear in each pane as the download progresses.
The app performed very quickly in our tests. QuadSucker/Web met each challenge, whether we downloaded an entire site with many pages and an abundance of image files, or chose just a single page from a very extensive site. This shareware app presents a nag screen at launch, but that's a minor irritation for such fine performance. Any user interested in offline viewing and reading will find QuadSucker/Web a handy tool.
