I don't know if it does quite what you want but the IE4 Powertoys
include something to list all the links in a page in one place.

  I use Page Sucker (downloaded from my local mirror of SimtelNet).
It seems to have the ability to do  the first two of the above sets of
requirements. It doesn't offer a clickable list that I know of.

       Harry.

I don't know about the above request, but for the one below, try
Go!zilla. It does just about anything related to downloads that you can
imagine...

I think there's one called Net Acceleratror or Web Accelerator; an early
version was given away free on the front of one of last month's PC
magazines.

There's a lot too it; I suspect I've only scratched the surface, but it
seems to be the Bees Knees ;-)

An icon sits in the system tray; click on it whole a web page is in the
active window and you can see a list of all files, or files of specified
types. A couple more clicks, and down they come.

Site Snagger,  PC Magazine free utility, might do what you want.
