| Monitor Internet Sites Automatically with Check&Get ActiveURLs has released Check&Get 3.0, a Windows web-monitoring application that manages your browser bookmarks, makes scheduled visits to web sites to look for changes, and retrieves and highlights the changed contents. Rather than your spending hours each month looking at competitors' web sites, Check&Get will visit all of these sites and tell you about new products, changes in price, or other information that is essential to your business. Each time Check&Get detects a change in a web site that it is monitoring, the program can email you a copy of the text, with the changes highlighted. Alternatively, the program can deliver a pop-up alert that displays on your screen, or play a sound file to alert you to the change. With its internal browser, Check&Get lets you look at your saved web pages, even when you're not connected to the Internet. You can use the program's auto-saving feature to collect snapshots of prior versions of web pages, allowing you to study and document the changes in web sites over time. Check&Get has built-in bookmark management functions. Using an intuitive, Explorer-like interface, it's easy to drag and drop bookmarks into Check&Get. You can search bookmarks by their names, descriptions, or keywords. Lists of URLs can be imported from any browser or Office document, and added to your bookmarks. Check&Get cleans duplicate bookmarks and eliminates inactive links, so your list of web sites is always fresh and accurate. You can turn your list of bookmarks into an unlimited number of collections, and schedule web searches by collection. The program supports Secure Socket Layer (SSL) sites, allowing access to secure https sites in addition to normal http sites. Check&Get works with Internet Explorer, FireFox, Netscape, Mozilla, Opera, and most popular Windows browsers, allowing you to open bookmarks, as well as import, export, and synchronize them. The user interface comes in English, German, and Russian. The Professional version of Check&Get 3.0 runs under Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/2003. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
