AutoDoubler is the effortless way to save hard disk space. You just double click to install and AutoDoubler does the rest. It increases your disk space by up to 100% or more by automatically compressing everything on your hard disk, from PowerBook users to Quadra users. AutoDoubler makes the most out of your storage space.
Completely Invisible
AutoDoubler won╒t interrupt your work or slow you down. It compresses only when your system is idle. You specify when you want AutoDoubler to go to work - so AutoDoubler is working when you╒re not!
AutoDoubler offers a number of other ╥invisible╙ benefits, such as improving network performance, speeding up modem transfers, and decreasing backup time.
So fast, you╒ll hardly know it╒s there
AutoDoubler╒s patent-pending technology reads compressed files so quickly, you╒ll hardly even know your files are compressed - just click and open. It even lets you use files and applications while they are still compressed, which makes AutoDoubler the fastest compression product available.
Files compressed with AutoDoubler look and act just like normal files; for example, all of the icons and modification dates remain unchanged. In fact, you╒ll hardly know the files have been compressed - until you notice how much disk space you have.
AutoDoubler is 100% reliable
AutoDoubler╒s safety mechanisms include an exclusive, fault-tolerant compression technology that automatically checks the new version against the original file as it compresses. Even in the event of a power failure, your files and applications are sale. And should you have a disk crash, AutoDoubler╒s recovery utility can in most cases repair damaged compressed files.

Compressed files are completely self-contained (AutoDoubler is not required to be active for the compressed files to work properly.)
