wGrabber is a software utility that displays the content of web pages and servers, showing all files on remote sites exactly as they are located. It differs from standard browsers and is a handy tool for internet users.
wGrabber is an impressive utility designed to display the content of web pages and servers. Unlike standard web browsers, this program shows all information (files) on remote web sites exactly as those files are really located, enabling users to view the directory structure on a remote web site (on the left-hand pane), all files contained in the directories (on the right-hand pane) like standard Windows file Explorer does.
The application's basic features and advantages are advanced, as wGrabber downloads only the minimal amount of bytes from every file required to determine file content while analyzing the directory structure on remote web sites, speeding up the building of file structure dramatically. Additional information such as file size and last modification date are available for every file, and wGrabber can show fast thumbnails for image files.
The software is highly configurable and supports connections through HTTP proxy servers, as well as connections to web sites requiring authorization (login/password). Users can quickly pause, resume, and stop analyzing remote web site content at any time. Furthermore, using filters, users can view only files of interest to them, for example, .mp3 files if searching for music or picture files if searching for photos.
Another nifty feature of wGrabber is that it enables interaction with Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer. Users can drag and drop files from wGrabber to Windows Explorer and URLs from Internet Explorer to wGrabbers, offering easy navigation between programs.
Overall, we found wGrabber to be a highly useful and efficient tool as it allows users to find files that were skipped while viewing web pages in a browser, which can lead to discovering something interesting. For beginners, default settings are available. Still, advanced users have the option to alter most of the application's settings, making wGrabber a versatile tool that can meet a range of needs.
