Requirements: 486/66 CPU with 32 MB RAM or Pentium PC with 16 MB RAM Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0, 6 MB free hard disk space minimum; 20MB recommended, Internet connection, Netscape Navigator 3.0+ or Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0+.

PeakSoft's NetMagnet ^TM is the first complete internet research and communication tool. It focuses on speed, organization, information sharing and productivity. It lets the user retrace browsing steps, organize search results, send relevant research to others, and archive or freshen important web sites in a customized filing system.

In November, 1996, PeakSoft released PeakJet, its first internet productivity product which received industry acclaim as the first internet browsing accelerator, the solution to speed up agonizing slow page loading from the web.

NetMagnet ^TM builds on the same Java technology that is at the heart of PeakJet. It supplements web acceleration innovations in Peakjet with even more advanced functionality. Internet users continue to demand faster access to data on the Web, but at the same time they also need tools to store, organize, freshen and send Web pages.

The perception of World Wide Web as an easily accessible, reliable source of information is driving more and more users to locate relevant information by using the Internet. Information gathering and research are surpassing e-mail as the primary uses of the internet. With information on the Web increasing exponentially, finding and keeping track of research results are becoming more difficult. NetMagnet ™ is a time-saving solution to information archiving, freshening, and transmission.

NetMagnet ^TM has the following features:

PeakJet an award-winning acceleration technology which browses 20 times faster because of its intelligent look-ahead agents that pre-load links, and the freshening agents which keep information current.

PageTracer which retraces your browsing history and keeps track of sites visited so you can retrieve any URL listings you may need, in future. It can edit, delete, reorder andannotate every listing.

PageFolio manages and organizes search results in a "snapshot" version or it can automatically refresh any specified pages.

PagePresenter allows you to share your search findings easily with others by packaging any group of web page URLs and delivering them as an e-mail attachment.

Collage Pages save selected elements from web pages which you can combine to create professional looking presentations.

Updater can be selected to receive these updates quickly and easily as you run the program, or they can be downloaded, free of charge, thereby creating the most up-to-date software available.

This program was installed very easily and, so far, it has lived up to all its claims. I recommend it.

Note: NetMagnet ™ does not work with America Online (AOL) built-in browsers or other customized versions. It does work satisfactorily with an AOL Internet connection and either Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer (standard versions).
