I seem unable to find the option to preserve file extensions when copying a site using WinHTTrack (i.e. index.aspx is renamed to index.html).

Is this possible? Google turns up nothing.

You will have to FTP into the server as an authorized user in order to obtain server-side scripts and other objects not referenced by any HTML files. The 'why' is too complicated to explain. Here is one FAQ from HTTRACK's FAQ page that answers your question:

Q: How can I retrieve .asp or .cgi sources instead of .html result?

A: You can't! For security reasons, web servers do not allow that.
