Chances are your Internet connection isn’t quite reliable, and the page stops loading every now and then, having a considerable impact on general navigation. However, you can use applications like A Great Grabber in order to look for specific types of content online, and download items of interest.

You only get to spend a little while in the installation process, getting the chance to check out the set of features before you realize. For everything to work as intended though, you need to make sure that .NET Framework is also on your computer, because it’s a mandatory functionality requirement.

First off, you need to pay a visit to the options menu in order to configure a profile. It’s also a good idea to save the project to file to load it easier later on so you don’t have to configure anything again. While in the settings menu, the second tab is where all source website need to be specified, with various related options to maximum threads, file size, extensions of interest, scan depth, and more.

In order to narrow down results, and to save some time in the download process, the application allows you to create custom filters for file lookup based on name, but mostly on extensions. A size range can also be specified, with the possibility to set up a minimum disk space limit so that application stops downloading when reached.

When download is initiated, the status is shown in real time, with a panel displaying scan threads, and another actual download threads. A tree list is built in real time, with the possibility to explorer it in a dedicated tab. Moreover, media files like images, videos, and sounds all feature their own playback and preview tab.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that A Great Grabber can help you download parts of the Internet to use in offline mode, suitable when working with a problematic Internet connection. Although it feels a little rough around the edges, it can easily scan custom targets, and download files you’re looking for.
