The problem that I am having is I go to http://www.example.com

sites/site A/link1.html...ect

Once it is on your hard drive, you (generally) can't get it with http anymore.
You would need to change it to


file://C:/my docs/web sites/site A/home.html

And to be honest, I suspect the spaces don't work so well either -- you
could try replacing them with %20, but it might be easier to either find the
DOS name (such as MYDOCU~1) or just use a different folder that does
not have any spaces in its name.

I have found that a good way to create a file: URL is to use the "open file" option of your favorite browser. I don't think that it will work on IE, but other browsers will generally put a file URL for the file in the URL bar.
