- Introducing Net Probe
- ---------------------
- Net Probe is a site list maintenance utility. It can import ftp and web
- sites from numerous sources including text, HTML, FTP Voyager files and the
- clipboard. It can then check the sites to see if they are alive and if
- they have been updated. You no longer have to spend hours keeping track of
- whether your favorite sites on the Internet are up or down or if anything
- is new; Net Probe can check them all for you in about the time it would
- take you to check one. It can also download the content of each web page
- on your list. You can even schedule Net Probe to check your site list
- periodically. It is multithreaded, easy to use, and cooperates nicely with
- your favorite ftp client or web browser.
