A help file will be available soon.


Installation
------------
Unzip the file and place it in the directory of your choice. Now simply run NetLoad.


What is NetLoad?
----------------
NetLoad is a smart file transfer system which maintains remote sites using
conventional FTP. It transfers new or updated files, and also recreates
entire directory structures on the remote site, removes old files and old
directories.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ THE DETAILS ON THE DOWNLOAD PAGE
AT THE WEB SITE BECAUSE NETLOAD WILL DELETE FILES FROM EITHER YOUR
PC OR FTP SERVER DEPENDING ON HOW IT NEEDS TO SYNCHRONISE THE TWO SITES.

If you see a trash can icon, that file will be deleted when you start the upload/download.


About this evaluation version
-----------------------------
This evaluation version contacts the NetLoad Permission Server in Australia
which gives you 50 FULL transfer sessions of NetLoad. You must be connected to the internet
to contact the permission server.

If the server cannot be contacted, or the 50 use limit has been reached, NetLoad
will only transfer files less than 1024 bytes.

The registered version does not contact the permission server, and the startup screen will
not be displayed.


Starting NetLoad for the first time
-----------------------------------
NetLoad has an easy to follow, six step, getting started help screen.


Remote File List Caching
------------------------
NetLoad cahces the remote directory once downloaded to save you time. Although NetLoad maintains
a perfect list of the remote site, it's wise to press 'refresh' on the remote site to make
sure NetLoad's list holds exactly what's there.


Mirroring
---------
To setup a mirror (download from remote site to your PC) right click on an FTP entry
in the list of FTP sites. This will display the upload/download menu. Proceed with
the 'compare' and 'download' as per usual.

Remember, files will be deleted from your hard disk if the trash can icon is displayed.


Online Registration
-------------------
Registration is encrypted and sent to our server in Australia. It's as
simple as filling out the details and pressing the 'send' button.
