This is a response to #reply-9218173, which is being moved to this thread: The features of your program are absolutely fantastic, as shown in your demo, but I HATE it when I download some new program and then I have more problems than I had before. It froze when it tried to open 100 messages at once....maybe I don't have enough RAM (I have 48 Mb)...it would be good if I could specify how many messages to open. My default browser is Netscape, the only reason I have IE is for programs whose default is IE, like yours and like Quicken, etc. OK...how do I set it up so when I boot up it stays on Netscape? I guess we can do this offline, altho I see there may be others interested. Howard, When you had the freeze, did your whole computer freeze, or just your browser? Were you using Netscape or MSIE when it froze? By the way, you can set the number of messages to download at a time, the setting is found by hitting the Configuration hyperlink on the BrowseMaster.com links line at the top and bottom of every BrowseMaster screen. As far as how to set up BrowseMaster to use Netscape - if MSIE is your default browser, then that will be launched when BrowseMaster starts up. You can disable browser launch when BrowseMaster starts up either when you install BrowseMaster, or else by right clicking on the BrowseMaster icon in the task bar status area, and then selecting "Setup". Then you can start up BrowseMaster, start up the browser of your choice, and go to the BrowseMaster URL 127.0.0.1:3456/home.pl. You'll want to add this to your Netscape bookmarks for easy access in the future. Alternately, you can make Netscape your default browser. This is described at browsemaster.com, but is more complicated. Let me know if you have any questions about any of this. Regards, Craig

Hi Craig, When I do a search in SI and get a list, I see a button "Get first XX", when most of the time I only want to see the latest "XX" posts. Any chance of having a "first XX" or "last XX" choice in a future version? Thanks, Dennis
