When I do a redesign of someone else's website, the first thing I do is 
backup the old site so I can refer to it offline, use it in pointing out 
changes and new features, and use any images or features that are to be 
kept.  I use WS_FTP as my ftp client, and I use it to download all the 
files, in their current directories.  Whatever ftp program you use probably 
has this capability.  There is a feature in IE to save websites, the 
difficulty with this is that it creates it's own directory structure and 
extra folders for things.  It also adds extra coding in to the page.
