The ForeFront Group has unveiled the full production version of WebWhacker 1.0 for Windows 3.1 and the Macintosh and a beta version for Windows 95.

WebWhacker lets users download single Web pages, groups of pages, or entire Web sites, including text and images. The program stores the data on the user's local desktop where the pages are relinked for later browsing offline, according to company officials. The downloaded information can be viewed and navigated locally using any Web browser.

WebWhacker is available for $49.95. You can download a free, 30-day trial copy at the ForeFront Web site.
