Stay Connected! 1.3 for Microsoft Windows 95/NT
Release Date: April 12, 1997
Fixed: We have changed the default host to an Atomic Clock server at
tycho.usno.navy.mil due to a request from Best Internet reporting that
we have placed a strain on Best Internet's system resources and may have
degraded Best Internet's services. We strongly encourage you to set
your default host to your local ISP to avoid situations like this from
happening again.

Stay Connected! 1.2a for Microsoft Windows 95/NT
Release Date: March 21, 1997
Fixed: AOL browser pops up a message "You have been online for xx minutes.
Do you want to stay online? Please click OK in 10 minutes or you will be
logged off." Stay Connected! v1.2 release was not aware of this message,
rather, we reacted to a message "You have been idle for a while. Do you
want to stay online?" by clicking the "Yes" button. With this release, we
are able to click both "Yes" and "OK" on behalf of the user.
Fixed: Even when AOL browser is not present, the two bars are showing a
misleading Aqua (Cyan) color rather than 2 red bars.

Stay Connected! 1.2 for Microsoft Windows 95/NT
Release Date: March 12, 1997
New! This is probably the most frequently asked question, "Does Stay
Connected! work with America Online?" YES! This release is solely
for the sake of this popular request.

Stay Connected! 1.1 for Microsoft Windows 95/NT
Release Date: February 26, 1997
New! This is probably the most important feature of this release. We have
added HTTP protocol to improve the dropped connection situation for some
users. In the previous version, many users were still disconnected even
after checking all tag services. This is due to ISPs detecting browser
activities only. If there isn't any browser activity, ISPs assume that the
subscriber is not surfing the net. Didn't you have experience downloading
a large file just to find out that your ISP disconnected you in the middle
of the download session?
New! Added user specified port to cater for users accessing through a proxy
server or firewall, as well as specific sites with specific services like
IRC, MSN.
New! As a convenience for users to register the software, a browser shortcut
icon is added to the folder. Users can also register via the newly added
menu item "Register Via Internet." Internet registration is the preferred
choice as the operation is fully automated 24 hours/day, 7 days a week,
and registration reply is instantaneous.
New! Added more help instructions in the help file to assist beginners.
New! Added a startup screen with evaluation period countdown so that users are
aware of the unregistered evaluation period. Registered users have the option
to disable this startup screen.
New! Added a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) to answer the most commonly asked
questions.
New! Added this whatsnew.txt
Fixed: Unreliable winsock operation with Windows 95 causes some modems to hang
completely. Hard reboot is required.
