software for saving data

I may have missed something, but I'm not sure what you mean.

If you mean saving web pages to your local computer, then I suggest you check out Google Notebook

Also, if you want a way to easily search for data on your desktop, look into google desktop or something similar. This will be much faster and more useful than the windows search (assuming you use windows, of course).

I didn't like Google Notebook

I've been searching up forums and I want to save technical data which I can refer later.

For Example
I click or search for virtual function then all the data which I have saved before may come up. That's what I want.
Any idea about such software?

Some sort of wiki system maybe?

Thanks for your help people but any offline software??? Which I can use without connnecting to internet.

A database would be your best option. OpenOffice Base is free and pretty good.

Assuming that you're running Windows, Sql Server Express is also free. It has the same powerful database engine as it's commercial versions, with some limitations that aren't likely to distract casual (or even most professional) users.

If you do utilize a standalone database for this project, do realize that you - very likely - need to create some kind of user interface for the data, in addition to the database itself. It is tedious to change records manually in the server manager program, even though you usually can do that if you want.

I believe there are some JS wikis that you can use offline.

I while ago I made a caching proxy. It was mostly just a fun way to test my networking code. Because it would cache absolutely everything, even if it wasn't supposed to, and not contact servers for anything it already had, I was able to use it to browse the internet when my router decided it didn't want to talk to me. In the process I learned that Wikipedia will refuse to talk to you if you don't tell it your user agent, and that porn sites don't send you different pages if you pretend to be GoogleBot (it was worth a try, anyway).

Actually, I like the idea behind YaCy, which (in theory) can cache and allow you to search any pages you have visited. Except that it seems to be really terrible at searching, which is sad, because it was a neat idea.
