James,

Without the ftp URL, it will be a long and slow process and still may not
be successful.
If the web was created with Front Page, you can forget it -- there are
hundreds of subdirectories and hidden files.

You will need to browse to every single page in the web and then save the
page plus save each and every graphic.  But you still would not have any
of the auxilary script files (like CGI).

Sometimes the simplest solutions are the most overlooked. <g>

Connect to the Internet and then
click START -- RUN -- and type in:    FTP FTP.isp-domain-name.type.

Do you know the URL that was used to upload and/or update the web?
Does the ISP publish "how to" information on their web site?
Can you email another webmaster on that same ISP and ask for the URL?
