Tripod is a web hosting service. It allows users to use a subdomain or their own custom domain. It is not clear if Lycos is turning a profit. After the incidents of Lycos Europe it seems that the website is at risk of being shutdown.

Discovery & Downloading

Through basic subdomain scanning using Knockpy python knockpy.py tripod.com we can locate approximately 30,000 subdomains with around 17,500 returning code 200.

After we single out all active subdomains we can use a command like this to create a WARC of each domain.

parallel -a domains.txt --jobs 10 wget -e robots=off -m --page-requisites --warc-file="{/}" {}

Finally, we'd just have to combine all the WARC files using something like MegaWARC or MegaWARC Factory.
