:( I'm confused - not unusual.
I often save pages from FAOL - dressing for a fly, good article, recipe, etc. - but can't do it anymore. The Save bar graph goes to 75% and then says the article can't be saved to disc. I've tried to save to desktop, my articles file on the C drive, etc. Nothing works. Have I fouled up my computer or has the site made it imipossiblel to save its contents?
Your help is appreciated. Thanks.

I copy and paste to a Word document file and save it under a subject name, then I can burn it on a CD for storage or save to a 1.44MB disk (better for me than having a lot of data files taking up hard drive space that can be used for programs). Just an idea :).
I have been saving "Fly of the Week", and "Just Old Flies and stuff" to CD, using deskPDF, which is a program to convert articles to readable formate for the free download Adobe Reader. I have now included "Dressing Atlantic Salmon Flies, by Ronn Lucas and friends to the CD. I will be offering the CD sometime next month in September. So please wait for my notice when I am ready... I have about 140 members of FAOL are waiting list from last year that will be the first to receiving the updated 2006 CD.
I do not charge for the CD, which is FAOL policy. I am allowed to receive free-will donations, to cover costs of CD, CD Label, CD Envelope, Mailing Labels, Mailing Container, and postage.
My project for 2007 is Al Campbell's Fly Tying Series.
Just for S & G I tried it on a page in the features section and had no trouble.
I did one using IE and one using Firefox.
Have you installed any antivirus software recently?
Parnelli,
You are really appreciated...thanks again and in advance...it must be a labor of love :D

dixieangler - That works, but the file winds up several times larger than the saved page.
Fly_Line. I "saved this page right off the bat. But got the earlier result with a fly dressing page and a What's Cookinig page. The computer loafed a bit, saved 75 percent then told me it couldn't be saved. My antivirus program is Avast, It's free, effective and it updates itself about 2-3 times a week, always with notification. I've been using it (witih IE) for over a year.
Thanks to those who answered.
Most mysterious!
