"If you like copying other people's work..."
Version: Teleport Pro 1.44
Pros
... then this program is definitely for you!
But, since having its copy-a-website advantages, this also has its disadvantages. This program was created for people who wanted to view websites whilst offline, especially websites with informative content such as medical or tutorial. Good for students who want to share information between their study environment to their comrades.
Unfortunately, this software has been misused and widely abused for its sole purpose of invention. Entities out there are copying professional web-designers/developers' work and modifying its contents to use for themselves, or even make profit by illegally trading them.
Fortunately, there are website/page/HTML encryption programs out there that protects web-disigners/developers' work from being stolen, try Encrypt HTML Pro, you won't be disappointed. Even if you don't want an encryption program, there are websites/forums where HTML encryption support is web-bourne. Just search for it and you'll find it.
Overall, this program is rendered useless, since I have Encrypt HTML Pro which protects my websites from being downloaded/copied.
Cons
When it comes to encrypted/copy-proofed websites, this program is one BIG joke!

"Evil program made to make the life of thiefs easier"
Version: Teleport Pro 1.44
Pros
nothing
Cons
My site was stolen with this program. I am sure that all the bad that this program caused to webmasters who spend their time building a website and then see it copied on other domain will come back to the creators of teleport pro. The good will always win. I wonder how people can sleep well after making that kind of program... i guess they don't care.

"Try the freeware HTTrack Website Copier"
Version: Teleport Pro 1.44
Cons
It is advertised to be "The most fully-featured and robust webspider available, Teleport Pro handles today's more complex websites flawlessly." But beware that Teleport Pro has flaws and finds many simple graphical animation files too complex to handle. I paid $39.95 for this watered down version of their Teleport Ultra which is $149. Nevertheless, for 39 bucks you'd expect it to perform better than the HTTrack Website Copier freeware. Unfortunately, Teleport Pro performed no better that HTTrack. I'm out $39, but if you read about my experience with Teleport Pro and it saves you some money and disappointment, then it'll be some consolation to me.
Finally, I sent the Teleport support team an inquiry, but they never responded. They claim to support their software and that they are always available to answer customers' questions. There seems to be a pattern here: claim to do something, but unable to deliver. Try HTTrack Website Copier.

"Simple and Reliable Web spider"
Version: Teleport Pro 1.44
Pros
I started to use Teleport Pro 4 years ago. It is easy to use and fast. Does not use a lot of memory, there are no adds or other disturbing "features". Will download large websites with no problem.
In despite of the simple user interface there are many options, which makes it verry flexible. For example you can use this spider to download all the images from an website or to search for zip files or anything else you may want. You can stop the job and resume it later.
I also use this program for downloading websites in order to see what's inside (css files, java scripts etc). There is an option into Teleport you can use it to duplicate the website structure from the server. For a webdesigner this may be a usefull tool...
Tired to click again and again "Save link as..." in your web browser ? Use this product. It's smarter !
Cons
Speed... Teleport does not use mirrors. Do not use it as a download manager for big files.
