If you have some Perl experience you could use the HTML::LinkExtor modules
to build a robot to scan a site and download all the objects making up the
site e.g. html pages, images, .docs, .pdfs etc. We previously built such a
system for a client which allowed them scan their database driven site and
zip up all the content i.e. it converted dynamic content to static HTML
pages. It was about a week's development work. If you're experienced with
ASP you could use ASP2HTM. I looked at this a while back and encountered
some problems - can remember what though !
