This is the second time that version 1.71 of DV is included in the updates, the first time on Oct 4, the second time on Oct 10, 2011.
Have there been any changes in between?

Still works great (using 10.5.8). Love watching the ongoing process - Log (wget). Plenty enough configuration/usage options too. Excellent piece of software.

I meant the old icon of version 1.4. Seems to be that there's a new icon (again). This one looks much better...:)

I love this program. Works well. Never had a problem with it.

I like the free software SimpleWget. But that's cause I'm cheap.

I don't know if you are going to advertise WebDevil here or what. (problem with sales?) I have seen your posts (copied/pasted) all over many sites were DeepVacuum appears. All of them made over last night. You could use at least same nick name everywhere.

It may have happened that there was some problem with DV but I always provide users with as good support as possible.

In example: stability = 3. Did it ever crash on you? DeepVacuum is rock stable as it is build on wget. wget is a very, very mature program with almost no crash related bugs.

Ease of use 1/5? I just got 4/5 from you with exactly the same comment on another site. How come?

So please at least test something you are going to write about.

I had trouble doing a simple thing-- just wanted the
web page and all web pages linked to it. I found the
preference selections to be very confusing and had
to figure out what the settings should be by trial and
error.

In contrast, SiteSucker and Web Devil had much clearer
preference selections and instructions.

"Trial and error" - WTF dude? DeepVacuum has highly detailed application help resources covering every available option. Help resources are accessed via the "Help" menu in the menu bar, it's the last menu going from left to right (the menu bar is at the top of your computer monitor). To open the menu, use your mouse to position the on-screen pointer over the word "Help" and click once and release. Then move the pointer to highlight the menu item you want to view (menu items automatically highlight when the pointer brushes over them). Click once and release to select the menu item, which will quickly flash a few times. A new window will open and float above all....

Awww, eff it, this is a waste of time. You're review sounds like you're either an epic moron, or you have an ulterior motive such as driving down sales of DeepVacuum in favor of a competitor.

If you get "returns a library link error", please make sure that you have Mac OS X 10.3+ installed on you computer.

DeepVacuum is handling cookie contrlled pages. Do same as with SiteSucker

[Version 1.2.2]

Anonymous reviewed on 23 Sep 2004

no handling of cookie-controled pages, contrary to SiteSucker for instance (with SS just log in to your favorite page with Safari then leave it on and run SS) -this is a showstopper for me

[Version 1.2.2]

Contacts had trouble on 23 Nov 2003

Lets solve it together. I haven't got such a bug, and cannot reproduce it. You may try to switch of Safari cookies and see if it helps. I encourage everybody to send me any feedback. This is still preliminary version < 1.0.
