NETCAPTOR 7.5.2 RELEASE NOTES
June 29, 2004
*** PRO VERSION USERS: To install this update, just download the
free version from our web site. It will "remember" your
registration key and you will be running NetCaptor Pro.
*** SECURITY UPDATE - PLEASE READ ***
One of the nice things about building a browser on top of the
Internet Explorer engine is that I don't have to worry about
web navigation and HTML rendering. The downside is that NetCaptor
can inherit some of IE's security weaknesses, including a
recent vulnerability described here:
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/713878
http://secunia.com/advisories/11793/
http://isc.incidents.org/diary.php?date=2004-06-29
At its core, this vulnerability is caused by the execution
of one of several protocols (ms-its, ms-itss, its, mk, mhtml) that
don't serve a practical purpose in a browser. We have
disabled/blocked these protocols in NetCaptor 7.5.2 so it is not
vulnerable to the same exploits as Internet Explorer.
NOTE - one vulnerability requires a "Web Page Dialog" to be
launched. NetCaptor's PopupCaptor will generally block these,
so you must bypass or turn-off PopupCaptor if you wish to view
any of the proof-of-concept pages that demonstrate the exploit.
NetCaptor will now block access to URLs similar to this one:
ms-its:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/iegetsrt.htm
FIXES
* Turned CTRL + SHIFT + S (Save As) shortcut on).

NETCAPTOR 7.5.1 RELEASE NOTES
May 7, 2004
*** FREE VERSION USERS: The free version of NetCaptor no longer
downloads text ads from the internet. Instead, it will display
sometimes display a list of "Related Searches" in the ad bar.
These keywords are taken from a list that lives inside NetCaptor
and it creates the displayed list by analyzing the page
you are viewing. If you click a link, it will take you to our
search page. We think you'll like this new ad system.
FEATURES
* New "Add Favorite Here" feature makes it easy to add a Favorite
to any Favorites or Links folder with one click.
* Expandable CaptorGroups. You have to try this to appreciate it.
Click "Expand CaptorGroups" in the CG menu. NetCaptor will
"expand" your groups so you can open the whole thing or
individual groups with a single click.
CHANGES
* Removed the "Address Tools" button from the address bar. The
same tools are now available from the drop-down menu of the
"Go" button.
FIXED
* Fixed several access violations.
