This is not hard...just open your browser and it should be in your 
cache...however if it is not...

Not true...you can copy and paste anything you want if you have the 
right version of Reader.

Of course. Links are workable if you are online....unless you are just 
linking to other pages you have downloaded.

You would have to save all the site's the pages to a folder, and save 
the graphics separately. If you know how webpages are made you could do 
this yourself but it is still tedious or could be depending on the 
amount of parts the page has. The easiest thing would be to get a 
program that pulls webpages off the web parts in total, and puts them 
in a folder for you. Then you can drag the index.html (or whatever) 
over your browser while offline and surf the rest of the site.
