[Air-L] the best way to archive web material?

[Sarah Oates]

Hello and apologies if this has been asked recently or seems a bit basic! 
 
Does anyone have a recommendation for software to archive web material? I am heading a project to study political activism on the Russian internet and we need to store a range of different types of web pages across time ... I can't even get my PC to store even a small amount with full images. My research partner in Ukraine can, but she has a Mac (not an option available at my university right now). I have a small budget to buy some software, although freeware suggestions always appreciated. I want to have the archive complete so that we can work with it, share it with other researchers, go back to it as necessary, etc., so I really want to have full graphics etc. Optimally, it would be something that could do automatic crawls and downloads as well, although as we are tending to focus on relatively short periods of intense interest around particularly issues/events, we don't need a long-term crawl system. 
 
Suggestions from this clever and useful list most welcome, although currently this list is making me sad that I am not in Sweden to meet people at exciting venues and hear what I am sure is some great work (: 
 
Sincerely
Sarah
