I've used it on two sites. It works well, I did not experience any
bugs. In using this, it's important to be a good 'netizen' (using w/in
rights, not pounding on a target server too hard, etc) so I strongly
recommend reading the documentation and forums beforehand.

This is a good product w/decent support.

Ditto.

My experience is based on about 15 sites that I store and update with
HTTrack.

The good netizenship rules are here:

I've used it for a number of sites and it worked well. However, recently
when I only wanted all pdf files stored on a website it didn't work. I
don't know whether this was my bad manipulation, a deliberate blocking
of downloads by the website (I don't think this can be reason, since the
site hosts academic publications to facilitate distributing of research
results) of the program.

I must add that I use SpiderZilla, the Mozilla/Firefox extension.
