A girl who has about 10 clips4sale sites has just announced she will remove all scenes of some specific themes (for personal reasons); the scenes will be removed before the end of this week. She also says the scenes may be purchased in the future by contacting her directly and tell her the title of the (then-absent) scene. It would take many many hours for me to scroll through all those sites (thousands of scenes) to make a record of every scene, for future reference. So is there any software which can automatically make a copy of her clips4sale catalogues before she removes a bunch of scenes?

Couldn't you just print an XPS document of the listing? Then you would have a copy saved on your machine.

Yes I could save page by page. Is that what XPS is about?
I was hoping for something more automated.

Is there a way to get Clips4Sale to list all the titles (or up to 100 or some high number) on one page? I haven't used the site so I don't know the interface. I know sites like ADE will allow you to change the display up to 100 titles per page.

I just went and checked. You can list up to 100 scenes per page. It may not be the ideal solution that you are looking for but if no one else has any better ideas it certainly is a helluva lot more efficient than writing them down.

I don't know if this will help you or not. I'm not sure what exactly you are trying to save (HTML, videos, etc.).
I used Httrack website copier recently to save all the HTML pages of a site that was going down. WinHttrack is the windows version.
Be sure to read the documentation and FAQ before using it or you will be disappointed in the results. It is highly configurable. You can tell it exactly what you want to capture.
Hope this helps.
edit: I wanted to add that Flash's idea is probably better if you want certainty that whatever you do works as expected.

Thanks to you both.
I'll do Flash's idea first because it's the quickest/simplest to do in a hurry.
Then I'll look at Httrack.

The site is Vile Habit Video. It contains HTML, text, pics, and vids.

I looked at it. If you're just trying to grab those pages to have a record of what's available, I would skip my idea and do what Flash suggested.
Change it to 100 and save each webpage using your browser. If you need something more than that, you could look at extensions available for your browser. I see Firefox has several for saving webpages.
But I think "Save As", "webpage, complete" (in Firefox) will suffice. Every browser has some form of it.
By the time you learn Httrack, you may not have time left to use it.

Programmatically PhantomJS would be a good way to do it.
Or use a very simple library such as:
url-to-image
https://github.com/kimmobrunfeldt/url-to-image
Create a script that lists out all the pages and calls them.
I would use excel to create the list of URLS if they follow a pattern
http://clipsforsale.com/user/kitty/page=1
http://clipsforsale.com/user/kitty/page=2
http://clipsforsale.com/user/kitty/page=3
etc....
and save it as a batch file and run it.
The CLI would then be:
urltoimage http://clipsforsale.com/user/kitty/page=1 page1
urltoimage http://clipsforsale.com/user/kitty/page=2 page2
etc...
