IE has had this functionality since version4.  You can save as

Html only
Web Page Complete (creates a html file and a folder structure to store the
inline gifs etc )
Web Archive, single file (called a .mht ) which open as a zip with the html
in a txt file and gifs called unknown.xxx
as below

$ file *
0001.txt:    HTML document text
UNKNOWN.001: GIF image data, version 87a, 110 x 58,
UNKNOWN.002: GIF image data, version 87a, 38 x 58,
UNKNOWN.003: GIF image data, version 87a, 52 x 58,
