Internet Adventurer v1.20 is now released !!

Internet Adventurer is OS/2's premier Internet Suite, it integrates all
major internet protocols into one program.

IA supports WWW, IRC, News, Email, Java, FTP and Telnet.

For further info and download, refer to http://www.inetadv.net - where
a free demo is available.

Internet Adventure has been awarded 5 cows by TUCows - the highest
possible score, and Software Showcase has rated IA "Excellent".

The newest edition of the EDM/2 magazine has this to say about IA:

"In conclusion the Internet Adventurer suite of programs is an
excellent program which has great potential. The GUI design is clean
and direct. The user is never overpowered with too much information
even though at times the program has several presentation manager
windows opened."

it also says
 
"In short, this program can fulfill the needs of all but the most
demanding of Internet users."

Internet Adventurer is shareware, and costs $40 to register - you can
register direct from http://www.inetadv.net

At WarpStock, IA will be sold at 25% discount, $30, and you'll even get
a free tshirt if you register there.

So, see you at WarpStock...

This is a list of changes since the last version...

Version 1.20
 - Pressing Ctrl-Up or Ctrl-Down sometimes confused the treeview
   control, so it could lose track of the current cursor position.
 - '+' and '-' can now be used to expand/collapse in the treeview.
 - Attachments of type  are now shown in a 'spawned'
   window so attachments within attached messages can be decoded.
 - If more than 30000 groups exists, IA would choke when trying to
   display them, causing the scrollbar to be grayed out, and only
   about 20.000 groups to be shown in the 'All groups' list.
   Now, a max. of 60.000 groups can be shown in the list.
 - Wordwrap now only wraps on whitespace (space, tab etc.) - previously,
   it would wrap in the middle of URLs, at these characters:
   ".;:,?!"
 - If exactly one new message existed in a newsgroup, it would
   not be retrieved - if 2 or more message existed, they would both
   be retrieved.
 - FTPPM.EXE and TELNETPM.EXE are now used instead of their
   command-line equivalents. 
 - Totally new PM Install program - makes installation much easier !
 - IRC Nuke detection/avoiding improved !
 - New popup in the unregistered version - you can now register
   directly from the initial screen.
 - The navigation buttons sometimes didn't 'go up' when the mouse was
   moved away from them.
 - The news database format has been changed, and there is now one
   set of files for each newsgroup. This should make access to the
   article list a lot faster, but it also makes compacting the database
   a little slower, because there are more files to compact.
 - The cursor was not always displayed in the edit window initially,
   when composing email/news messages.
 - Clicking on the fieldbar in treeview controls didn't change
   the window focus.
 - The 'Download marked articles' menuitem in the articlelist
   popup menu didn't do anything.
 - A setup wizard has been added - it will run the first time you
   start IA, and can be started manually later - it makes configuring
   the basic parts of IA a lot easier, and advanced setup is still
   available though the settings notebook.
 - Proxy support added to WebWatcher, so you can now check www-pages
   though your company firewall !! Use of the proxy can be disabled
   for individual entries in the list, so both internal and external
   sites can be checked.
 - The quicklist would sometimes be corrupted, and not save the latest
   change.
 - If a subject was more than 512 characters long, IA would trap
   trying to display it.
 - Headers marked as 'not on server' were not deleted automatically
   when expired headers were deleted.
 - Search news/mailgroups added, you can search on all the things
   a filter can search on, and it is also possible to save search
   templates for later use.
 - Stability under warp3 has been improved, and a few user interface
   glitches has been taken care of.
 - Draft and trash folders added, drafts can now be saved, and
   re-edited or sent at a later time. The trash-folder can guard
   against unwanted deletes.
 - If a group contained less than 100 articles, and IA was told to
   load the last 100 articles from the server, nothing would be
   loaded.
 - The action 'download body' in the filters didn't work.
 - A compose wizard has been added, this makes composing new
   messages easier, since the newsgroup, subject, and email address
   are all entered on the same page.
 - IA previously thought that any line that began with "begin"
   meant that the rest of the file was uu-encoded - now, it is a bit
   more intelligent.
 - A bug in uu-decoding has been fixed - if a message didn't
   have a newline after the word 'end' then the last part of an
   uu-encoded file would be lost.
 - CTCP SOUND support added to IRC - make sure that any eventual
   REXX scripts you are using is not filtering SOUND requests
   out.
 - The  key now works as doubleclick in the articlelist.
 - Alt-1, Alt-2 and Alt-3 in the news window, previously restored
   maximized windows, now they keep their size. Also, 1 2 and 3 can
   be used without the ALT key.
 - Reply-To and Forward wizards have been added - you can now also
   send carbon copies to all other receipents of an email.
 - WordWrap now also wraps when viewing articles, not just when
   composing them.
 - Column sizes are now saved for all treeview controls, including
   the webwatcher, address book and group list.
 - A subject can now also be added to the killfile, from the
   menu.
 - Database compaction has now been split into two - one for
   compaction only, and one for the whole show with full 
   error-recovery.
 - The help system has now been changed, so all the help is in HTML
   format. This makes integrating graphics and links much easier,
   and it also allows for some nicer looking help.
 - The last used email account in a compose-message is now remembered
   for the next compose.
