Publisher's description of 1st Webcollector
From ZS webcollector: 1st Webcollector is a multithread software product for downloading all pictures and any other kinds of files specified by extension from a Web site. 1st Webcollector will make full use of your bandwidth, allowing you to download 200 files simultaneously. You also can set the program to scan the entire Web site and retrieve only those files that meet your specifications. Besides pictures, you can specify five other types of files to download at a time, such as MP3 files and MPEG files. 1st Webcollector can recover from broken connections, computer shutdowns, and other errors. 1st Webcollector provides a number of functions to make files retrieval easy and efficient.Editor's review of 1st Webcollector
While features look good, too many problems plague this image collector. After you identify which site you want to troll for images, 1st Webcollector asks you to specify the size and file type of images you're looking for, as well as where you want the files to be saved. We were surprised to find that the trial version would allow us to download up to 100 URLs, a large amount--but we were disappointed as we couldn't track the downloading process at all. The bottom line: 1st Webcollector is far less robust than it claims. During one test, it took more than 10 minutes to collect some 20 images from one site. In the end, none of the images were successfully transferred. Feature-rich but functionally poor, this program could use an upgrade.
