- Product Description
- --------------------
-
- WebMirror is an advanced off-line browsing tool that allows you to
- re-create sections of the World Wide Web directly on your hard drive or
- local network. You can save particular pages, complete with text, links and
- graphics. Once the Web pages are saved to your hard drive (that is, once
- you have "captured" them), you can refer back to the information at any
- time, without an online connection and additional connection charges.
-
- --------------------
- New Features
- --------------------
-
- WebMirror 1.10 includes wizards, a new interactive interface, and
- scheduling.
-
- This version lets you use WebMirror as a proxy service to your browser,
- which makes viewing local and online Web pages transparent. Once your
- browser is configured to use WebMirror as a proxy, WebMirror will handle
- the loading of your Web pages, automatically determining whether to load
- the requested information from the pages saved on your hard drive or to
- retrieve new pages from the Web. You can even make sure your database
- remains up to date by scheduling WebMirror to perform automatic, unattended
- updates using your Windows 95 Dial-Up Connection or OS/2 Dial Other
- Internet Provider.
-
- WebMirror 1.10 keeps all of your captured Web pages in a single database.
- Although the database is a proprietary format, you can export a site's HTML
- and related files for use in other programs.
-
- --------------------
- Evaluation Software
- --------------------
-
- If you are using an evaluation version of WebMirror 1.10, please note that
- the evaluation software performs captures no more than 1 level deep. Once
- you have fully evaluated the program, you will be able to use all data
- collected during evaluation with your permanent (purchased) copy of
- WebMirror.
-
- The trial copy available for download is offered so you can give WebMirror
- a try before purchasing.

- Requirements
- --------------------
-
- * 486-DX or higher
-
- * Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0.
-
- * OS/2 Warp 3, Warp 3 Connect, Warp 4.
-
- * 8 MB (Windows 95) 16 MB (Windows NT and OS/2) RAM. Additional memory
- makes WebMirror run faster.
-
- * 10 MB free hard drive space (1 MB for the program; 9 MB for captured
- sites). Since WebMirror stores HTML files and images from the Web, the
- disk space required is determined by the number and size of the images
- and files you capture.
-
- * An active Internet connection with a Winsock-compliant network product
- (Windows).
-
- * TCP/IP connection with SLIP, PPP, or direct connectivity.
-
- * A SpyGlass SDI standard-compliant Web browser such as:
- * Internet Explorer (TM) version 2.0-4.0
- * Netscape Navigator (TM) version 1.1b3-4.0
-
- A Web browser is required only for viewing captured pages. You may capture
- pages from the Internet with any Web connection. Since WebMirror makes
- independent network connections to desired pages (sites), a Web browser is
- not necessary for WebMirror "capturing," but is only needed for viewing the
- resulting groups of local files.
-
- Recommended
-
- * Pentium-100
- * 16 MB RAM
- * Additional hard drive space
-
- --------------------
- Limitations

- gopher, nntp, news, or mail protocols. They are skipped when they are
- encountered in the HTML for a site.

- 95 Dial-Up connections with no scripts. If you are using anything other
