Product Description:

Are there web sites that you check regularly to see whether there's anything new? And usually there isn't? Then you need Subscriber to check them for you.

Unlike the subscription feature in some browsers, Subscriber allows you to specify just which aspects of a web page you are interested in. So you won't be bothered by a message telling you that a page has updated every time the date changes, or the site gets a new visitor.

What's new in this version:

  • You can now designate any subscription as being 'Manual' instead of specifying the number of minutes between checks. Then it will be checked only when you manually invoke an Update command. (See the Help panel for details.)
  • Improved performance, especially when there is a large number of subscriptions.
  • Fixed sluggish response to typing in the Set Interval Between Checks dialog.
  • Improved responsiveness to the Halt All Tasks (Command-period) command.
  • Fixed bug where, after the Halt All Tasks command, Subscriber could erroneously report that one task was still under way.
  • Improved the badge that is overlaid on Subscriber's dock icon to show the number of changed subscriptions.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.3
  • Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.2 or higher

this program is so easy to use and does exactly what i need it to do. i use it to monitor websites for classes that i want to take in school but are already full. subscriber tells me right when there are openings so i have an advantage over the other kids. i was having problems with figureing out the html code to use so i would just be alerted when a certain class section opened. the tech support was so helpful and responded to my email the same day. they rock!

This is an example of a simple, good value-for-money product that does what it's supposed to very well indeed. Tech support is outstanding, design is pleasing and it's obvious that a great deal of thought and testing has gone into making Subscriber everything it should be.
