go to your root directory and type:

tar cvfz mud.tar.gz *

This will tar and gzip everthing you have below the root directory.  From
there you can ftp it to your machine or leave it on your machine, whatever
you want to do.  To undo it, however, just gunzip it(gunzip mud.tar.gz) then
untar it (tar -xvf mud.tar).
