Re: Web Whacker

Hi Kate and LM_Netters,

This is my first post to this listserv - hope my message finds you.

I am using a trial copy of Webwhacker. You are permitted to use the software
for 30days or 20 'whacks', whichever comes up first.

I found that the software worked well, however it did highlight the fact
that I need more RAM.  I practiced with 'Learn the Net' (a free online
tutorial for non-commercial users). I haven't used many online tutorials
about using the Net but I think that this one is quite impressive.  If you
are interested you'll find it at http://www.learnthenet.com/

There is a tutorial which I advise you look at first.  Some personality
types like mine however may not heed this advice and may inadvertently end
up downloading 'half' the internet.

Cheers,

Fran
