WinHTTrack is an offline browser utility that downloads a website from the Internet to a local directory. The program builds all linked files and directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server and saving them to your computer. WinHTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads.
Alternatively, X-WinHTTrack is a portable package for standard WinHTTrack.

WinHTTrack Website Copier is not portable, it has never been and it will never be- it creates a new Windows shell item anytime it starts. Better use the installer version because a decent uninstaller will delete the registry entries. |

XYplorer has a strange support for unicode - it can manipulate files with unicode characters (In particular, Georgian unicode characters) in their filenames, i.e. it can show, copy, move, delete, etc. them, but when I try to rename a file, it writes just "question marks" instead of characters.

Anyone know how to install the "Mplayer extra package" listed above? |
TorChat is a basic, text-only instant messaging client focused on security and anonymity. It includes availability (away, lunch, etc), optional profile, and avatar. The program requires almost no setup: just share your randomly-generated username (e.g. "bkmworoidjwxz5l") to other TorChat users. These are easily created and discarded to help maintain anonymity.
The program uses the Tor network's hidden services feature to send messages between peers with authentication and encryption based on public key exchange.
Also available for Linux.
NOTE: TorChat has been out of development for some time and connection may require additional steps. Ricochet is an attempted replacement.
