EZ Download ----------- Version 96.7.12 --------------- EZ Download 96 is a plug-in that makes downloading programs a snap. It can be plugged into both Netscape and America Online WWW Browser. For novice and advanced users alike. If you find downloading a program to the right folder, retrieving it, moving it, unzipping it, locating the install program and finally cleaning after it frustrating, then EZ Download is for you. If you have no idea what a zip file is and you really don't want to know, then EZ Download is also for you. EZ Download manages the entire download process safely and intelligently. HOW TO INSTALL -------------- Run setup.exe HOW TO UNINSTALL ---------------- - Start Control Panel - Select Add/Remove Programs - Select EZ Download WHAT'S NEW IN THIS RELEASE -------------------------- - Support for America Online WWW Browser FEATURES -------- - Automatic unzipping and installation of .zip and .exe files - Support for anti-virus scanners - Automatic detection and support for Norton AntiVirus and Norton AntiVirus Internet Scanner - Option to Always install immediately - Option to Never install, move to Download folder - Install a previously downloaded file by selecting EZ Install - Option to specify the Download folder - Option to specify the location of pkunzip.exe (when it's not on the PATH) TIPS ---- Netscape saves .zip and .exe files in the folder pointed to by the TEMP environment variable. The Windows default for the TEMP setting is C:\DOS, which is messy if not dangerous. To change the TEMP setting to C:\Windows\temp for example, insert the following line in C:\autoexec.bat: set temp=C:\Windows\temp Once Netscape finishes downloading the .zip or the .exe, EZ Download unzips and/or runs it in a temporary folder under the Download folder (C:\downloaded files by default). If you choose to not install the file right away, EZ Download simply moves it to the Download folder. To install it later, right click on the file and select EZ Install. EZ Download requires pkunzip.exe to unzip files. By default, it expects it to be in a folder that is on your PATH (which is another environment variable). However, if that's not your case, you can set pkunzip.exe's location under Options.
