I'm presuming you are referring to Pocket Internet Explorer?

If you browse with Internet Explorer on your desktop/laptop, you can create a Mobile Favorite which stores the page (you can set the link depth, etc.) offline. You should have a button on your IE toolbar that looks like a Pocket PC called Create Mobile Favorite. If not, use Tools -> Create Mobile Favorite.

Once you have those set, use Tools -> Synchronize (this is where you can set how you want each one to download & sync) and IE will go and download all your Mobile Favorites. ActiveSync will automatically export them to your Pocket PC for viewing in Pocket Internet Explorer.

You can also use Avantgo, which is an offline web service which will also update through ActiveSync. Set up an account (it's free up to 2mb) at http://www.avantgo.com then go into Pocket Internet Explorer, click Avantgo, and set your account stuff there, and it will sync automatically for you.

There are also other services such as Mazingo but they use their own application for viewing, not Pocket Internet Explorer.
