hmm, what do you mean by data extract program? If you mean copying content randomly from other sites then I doubt if it is legal.

In my early days I have used HTTrack as an offline reader but not for publishing copyrighted material.

no no, we're a distributor of products. some of my vendors do not have EDI (txt file) or xls file of their products. so the only way to get the product info and pic from their site to ours is manually doing it one by one. so i need an automated process to get the data from my vendor's website onto mine so i can sell for them.
i'm not copying anything.

do you have programmers in your staff?
it is easy to parse webcontent using PHP and output it at your site.
