Browser
Sharit presents all results in a HTML format, and you will need
a WWW Browser such Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer to view them.
The executable file name including the full pathname specification of the
browser you wish to use must be entered in the box provided. Once entered,
the [help] button can be used to verify the setting.
Proxy Server Address & Port
If you need to access the Internet via a proxy, the address and port of the
proxy server, or gateway must be specified. If are getting constant
'Host not Found' error messages, chances are that your proxy settings
are not correct.
SMTP Server Address & Port
Sites which do not have an online submission form, and accept listing via
email, will receive email submission from Sharit. The outgoing email will
be sent via the specified SMTP mail server. An SMTP server address is
mandatory and must be set prior to submission.
Timeout Delay
The length of time Sharit will wait before attempting to Retry and/or
abort a network operation. The default value is 8000 milliseconds. If you
specify a smaller delay, Sharit will run faster, but may skip sites
that are slow to respond. Please note that unless you have a very fast internet
connection, you should not use a delay less than 2000 milliseconds as the
program may not function correctly.
Number of concurrent connections
To speed up the submission process, Sharit uses multiple
connections to submit URLs concurrently. The maximum number is 20, and you may wish
to specify a smaller number, if you are submitting in the background while
downloading files or using your browser.
Sort Options
Submission reports can be sorted either By Site Name, or By
Submit Date.
The by name option makes it easy to locate any site by its title. The by date
option will always place your most recent submissions at the top of the report.
This will help you locate all new submissions.
Report
By selecting the Open in Existing Browser option, submission reports
will be opened in the current browser window. If the specified browser is not
opened, Sharit will launch it.
The Open in New Browser Window option, will force sharit to always
open a new browser window to display your reports. This option should be
set if you do not wish to be interupted while working with your browser.
