There are lots of such programs about (ISTR twill used to use MaxQ for its recording feature, but I think Titus got rid of it in favour of his own code, for some reason). How useful they are depends on the details of what you're doing: the information that goes across HTTP is on a fairly low level, so e.g., most obviously, you may need to be sending a session ID that varies per-request. Those programs usually have some way of dealing with that specific problem, but you may run into other problems that have the same origin. Don't let me put you off it gets your job done, but it's good to be a bit wary: All current web-scraping approaches using free software suck in one way or another.
