MIME HTML (MHTML) is the file format that Microsoft Internet Explorer uses when it creates an archive copy of a Web page. It contains all the graphics, code and everything else the Web page needs, so you can open the page from your local computer without being connected the Web server. You can convert an MHTML file back to an HTML file so you can use it again or restore it if the original crashes. You can use Microsoft Word to handle the conversion. The process boils down to opening the file and saving as HTML.
