Hello. I've run into pages like this now and then. What goes with it? I click file:saveas... and create a folder. But then I get a message saying "The Web Page could not be saved to the selected location".

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!
 
Welp... I found downloading Mozilla was the solution that worked for me. I tried the other link tviman gave me, but IE6.0 would'nt save that page either.

Mozilla saves anything and everything.

I've always thought about trying Mozilla so now I have and I'm glad I did. I'm studying C++ and having an open source browser is pretty interesting.
