    Umm... I think you hit the Print Scrn button... you might hit CTRL, too... I don't know. I've only done it once. Then you go to the clipboard or paste it wherever you want it to go... I think. I'm a girl. I'm only kind of sure.

    I just go to "File" then Save-As.(In IE 6.) Limit myself to 4 pages deep. But, I also have Frontpage installed.
    The only difference is a faster load time. You can save the whole site!

    clipboard popup? i had never heard of the clipboard being a real thing. i always thought it was just sort of a general term.

    i know sometimes word will popup a "clipboard" when you have copied multiple things, but for what you want, it's just hit print screen, then go to paint and edit-->paste

    If you just want to edit a picture, then right click on it, Save Picture As

    To take a screenshot of the whole page, just hit the print screen button...

    once you've done that, it'll get coppied to the clipboard..

    then all you need to do is open a compatable program, and paste it in

    (for example, you can paste into paint, or word, or some type of graphics package, etc..).

    it's easy really.
