How to avoid a Paywall

How to avoid a Paywall

You go to a website to read an interesting article only to find you can't because you're not a subscriber. This is called a paywall. You need to pay to read. Or do you?

Why pay? Try this instead:

Right click on the page (with a one button mouse do ctrl-click)
Select "Save As"
In Format select "Webpage, HTML only"
Then go view the saved page.
In many cases you'll have the full page and content.

Tech Notes: This may not work in every case. Please email me details if you find a situation where it does not work.
