yep, use Firefox with the 'Magpie' extension.
if you open each pic into a tab, then you can press CTRL-SHIFT-S to save all tabs to the right of the current one you are viewing. It'll save it to a folder you set in the options.

an easy way to open each pic on a page into a tab is to use the 'Linky' extension - you can then highlight the links (or do the whole page), right-click and then 'open selected links in tabs'

the two of these combined works really good - I use em all the time. If you don't have it, Firefox is cool for porn viewing. The magpie multipage save even works (most times) for quicktime videos where they're embedded in the webpage (doesn't work at the apple trailers website - they have a small quictime linked to the bigger trailer qucktime, so it saves the small one).

*edit*
Magpie also downloads files in the background - so for example, if there's a page with a heap of video links, open them all in tabs, wait til they all have 'loading' written on the tab, then save all the tabs with the video unfinished, and Magpie will download the complete video. It restarts the download, so either do it when the video has just started, or is finished, otherwise you'll waste the time of whatever it's downloaded so far, say if the video is only half complete. Hope that makes sense ;)
Also if you dont want to do CTRL-SHIFT-S it is 'Save Media' in the 'File' menu.

no problems mate.

there's another cool porno surfing extension called 'Thumbs' - I don't use it as much as the above extensions, but it's still pretty handy.
With this one, you highlight however many links on a page you want, and then press the Thumbs button. It opens a new window with a thumb from each link (if there's one that can be created). It's cool for things like the 'grab links' page at this forum, or even google search results (especially good if your doing site specific searches for thumb galleries etc). Also excellent for sites like Milkman's, Tommy's Bookmarks, or similar, where they have a list of hundreds of text links. Saves a heap of time. Won't work with every page obviously (if the first loading pic is not from the gallery or the pic is on a html page - like the thumb previews at this forum) , but when it does work it works very well. Left click the generated thumb and it opens automatically in a new tab in the same window, which is cool. You can also mark all links as viewed after generating the thumbs.

Probably arcane, but I still leech with the old gozilla with the spyware removed. Almost always works.

Nah not at all, I forgot to mention that myself, just assumed bobafett would be using a download program already (sorry boba - I wasn't thinking). The download programs are the way to go for sure - they are great - I use flashget for most things. I used to use getright and gozilla at different times too, there all the same thing pretty much - although flashget downloads a lot of files that getright doesn't - can't remember gozilla too well though.
with Firefox I think you need the 'flashGot' plugin for firefox for flashget to work.

those plugins I mostly use for websites that have the pics/thumbs that only open in html pages and don't have zip or direct jpg link downloads (or embedded videos). for example DDGirls
 If I can get downloads working with flashget, I always use that first so I can queue hundreds of files to download overnight. ;)

No discussion of pic loaders here please....talk about that in PM's. Nobody has yet and there has been some great suggestions, but I can see where this is heading if others want to post. Thanks.
