I think you can just select File-->Save As (in IE) and save it as an html file.  Alternatively, you can save as a text file which will omit all of the icons/graphics.

No, it won't be altered when the web page updates.

Just browse to the page you want to save and select File-->Save As.  Then choose Web Page Complete and save it to My Documents or wherever.

You can try it and then disconnect your internet connection.  Open a new browser session, choose File-->Open and point to the saved web page.
