I want to rip the contents of a pay website, but I have to log in to their web site on a web page to get access
Does anyone have any good tools for Windows for that?
I’m guessing that any such tools must have a built in browser, or be a browser plugin for it to work.
Httrack might do what you need
Httrack doesn’t allow me to log into the website. The only security feature it has is http authorization, and this particular website has a plain web login.
Depending on how they auth, this might give you a way to look like httrack is your existing logged in session: https://superuser.com/questions/157331/mirroring-a-web-site-behind-a-login-form
Interesting idea. Unfortunately the cookies weren’t in cleartext in the page headers. I found the cookies values in the networking values, pasted them into htttrack, but that didn’t work.
My html cookie-fu is weak.
Came here to say this. Idk how it does with a password protected site.
