@tribaljet: don't know man! but thats the result! @angelictears: as for the listing! its pretty much every single thing that "intel9x-gaming" has! from posts and member's list...to archives and downloads...so it took me 2 hours to identify the files...and 7 hours to have every corner of this group explored for downloadable content! my CPU was at a constant 90%^ lol, that could be the issue! anyway, last night it was just a "test & see" experiment...and it did work! i downloaded 13 messages! opened them and they loaded just fine...in plain html, perfect for offline viewing...so yea, its gonna take sometime to get everything done :D at least now we have a "start line" :)
