- or TCP/IP-network. Messages are sent directly, using
- multithreading, to other computer(s) without an e-mail

- built-in feature, Seeker ,which allows you easily to
- search other NetPopups from the net.
-
- Version 2.22 has Connection Wizard to help you send your
- IP-address or messages via e-mail to your friend.
-

- from your own programs or batch-files.

- your're logged on the Internet.

- serve normal finger-queries and with Seeker-utility
- it helps you to track your friends from dynamic IP-addresses.
-
-
- 2. Why use Netpopup?

- another few minutes before reply arrive. NetPopup messages
- are received in few seconds after they are sent.

-
-
- 3. How NetPopup works?
- --------------------------
- NetPopup sends messages in separate thread so you can send
- another message while previous is still on the way.
-
-

- NetPopup in it.
-
-

- NetPopup uses simple verifying technique to check transmission.
