Preferences
This Dialog is used to configure and customise the operation
of WebWolf.

Browser
WebWolf presents all results in a HTML format, and you will need
a WWW Browser such Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer to view them.
The executable file name including the full pathname specification of the
browser you wish to use must be entered in the box provided. Once entered,
the [help] button can be used to verify the setting.
Proxy Server Address & Port
If you need to access the Internet via a proxy, the address and port of the
proxy server, or gateway must be specified. If are getting constant
'Host not Found' error messages, chances are that your proxy settings
are not correct.
Timeout Delay
The lenght of time WebWolf will wait before attempting to Retry and/or
abort a network operation. The default value is 4000 milliseconds. If you
specify a smaller delay, WebWolf will run faster, but may skip sites
that are slow to respond. Please note that unless you have a very fast internet
connection, you should not use a delay less than 2000 milliseconds as the
program may not function correctly.
Number of Wolves In pack
Specifies the number of concurrent connections that are to be used
to hunt (scan) the web. You may wish to specify a smaller number, if you are
running WebWolf in the background while downloading files or using your
browser. Five is the default, but if you have a fast connection and loads
of system memory (aprox 300K per wolf) you can increase it anywhere
up to a maximum of 20.
File Filter

|
The File Filter is used to specify whether certain file types should be
included in the results, or ignored. WebWolf can identify MAC and
Unix specific files types which you may not want in your final results.
