Overview
--------
InkSwitch is a small Windows 95/98/NT program designed for users of Internet
Explorer 4. InkSwitch indicates, and allows the user to change, IE4's working
online/offline mode (InkSwitch does NOT indicate whether the PC is currently
online). IE4's offline mode is useful when browsing offline, or reading your
mail and news in Outlook Express without it attempting to connect to the
internet.
Features:
* Toggle between offline and online mode by a single click on the icon
* Optionally load InkSwitch when Windows starts
* Allows Windows to be started in an offline, online or default working mode
* Immediately see IE4's current working mode before loading IE4
* Low memory and resource usage
* Supports IE4's rebuilding of the taskbar icons in the event of Explorer
crashing
Installation
------------
Installing InkSwitch is just a matter of clicking on the supplied install
file. It will then suggest installing to C:\Program Files\Inkland\InkSwitch.
You can change this destination folder if you wish. When you're happy with
this, allow the install to unzip InkSwitch and run it when done. An icon will
appear in the taskbar's status area (in the taskbar icon area) This icon
indicates whether Internet Explorer 4 is working in offline or online mode.
You can click on the icon to change the mode, or to get InkSwitch to start
automatically with Windows by clicking on "Options".
Uninstalling
------------
As InkSwitch does not add anything to the Windows registry, uninstalling
it is done by dragging the InkSwitch folder (wherever you installed it) into
the Recycle Bin!
N.B.
Make sure you turn off InkSwitch's "Load with Windows" option before
uninstalling it, otherwise an InkSwitch shortcut in your "StartUp"
folder (which InkSwitch creates) will not get deleted.
