Every day I download about 8 web pages in order to access some data on each one. Is there a utility which will automatically download and save each page, so i can do something more useful while they download?

Yes there are utility programs that can do this. I tried one called Web Whacker but I had trouble setting it up. It downloaded more pages than I wanted and I never could get it to download from a site that required a password. Hopefully others can recommend a better solution than Web Whacker.

Doesn't Explorer 4.0 download pages? If you had a web page with links to all of the pages would Explorer 4.0 download the linked pages?

Re: pre-ordering links for download.

Seems to me this should be a feature built right into
the browser. I'm surprised Netscape and Microsoft
didn't come up with something already. I'm don't see
how it would make data delivery less efficient.
