i need a "offline browser", which downloads whole news pages to read that afterwards offline with ie mobile.
the sunnysoft world off-line is what i looking for
http://www.sunnysoft.com/software.php?idarticle=98
but, this tool is not working properly. i test this software with following url
http://heise-online.mobi/
he downloads only the first page, but not the content of each link.

however, if someone use a other software, please report this here.
note: i prefer freeware, but i ready to use/pay for a commercial software.

Hmmmm... Check your settings on WOL, that site should work. If for some reason it doesn't, you can try Avantgo. Also, pages with RSS feeds can use SPB Insight.

First of all, you'd be better off posting a general question like this here:

instead of opening a new tread...

As for the browser - use Opera Mini (freeware). In case you don't know it - it's not really a WM5 program but a java midlet but with proper java VM (like jbed) it's probably the fastest browser available for this platform (and saves your bandwidth thanks to server-side content compression).
It can save pages for offline viewing: the option to do this in menu/tools/save page. Saved pages can be accessed from browser's start page.

Sorry, didn't notice that you want the link targets saved as well. Opera mini saves only the page you're viewing but doesn't save linked pages. I haven't heard of any WM software that could do that.
I think the easiest way would be to download pages to the PC and transfer them to your device afterwards.
