If you are using IE...
Have you considered using offline webpages??
It's pretty simple... from IE Help:
When you make a Web page available offline, you can read its content when your computer is not connected to the Internet. For example, you can view Web pages on your laptop computer when you don't have a network or Internet connection. Or you can read Web pages at home without tying up a phone line.
You can specify how much content you want available, such as just a page, or a page and all its links, and choose how you want to update that content on your computer.
If you just want to view a Web page offline, and you don't need to update the content, you can save the page on your computer. There are several ways you can save the Web page, from just saving the text to saving all of the images and text needed to display that page as it appears on the Web.
and...
To make an existing favorite item available offline
On the Favorites menu, click Organize Favorites.
Click the page you want to make available offline.
Select the Make available offline check box.
To specify a schedule for updating that page, and how much content to download, click Properties.
Notes
Before you go offline, make sure you have the latest version of your pages by clicking the Tools menu and then clicking Synchronize.
And actually, when in the 'Organize Favorites' box, it's easier to just right-click a fav and then select 'Make available offline...' which gives a setup wizard.
Have fun! ^
