ok, i am really dumb and need some help. i am not even too sure how to explain this. my bio professor puts up powerpoint slides on a website so that we can see them before the lecture. but i am not too sure how to save the whole slide show, so that i can open it in microsoft power point and print them out in handout form (i.e 3 slides on each page with lines to write notes)
here's the address of the slide show:

i want to be able to open up the slide show in microsoft power point. can someone help me? please

Well....
It seams as though your professor has chosen to save the slide show as a web page. It is unlikely that you could put it all back into PowerPoint without either copying each slide individually or getting the original document.
I don't have PowerPoint anymore so i can not remember if there is a way to load webpages into it.
As to your printing issues...save the PowerPoint slides onto your desktop one by one. Then load them in an image editing software like PSP 7. Then click print multiple images and size 3 to a page leaving the right column for notes in class.
Sorry i can not be more help!

It isn't exactly a web page. There are PowerPoint files being displayed to you, but I checked the directory and there's no source presentation file, just a lot of individual HTML documents and images.

When you have the webpage open,Go to File and there should be an option to "edit with PowerPoint" Then it opens it in PP.Then you just save it as ppt to your harddrive. It worked for me.
