Brief description of the software:

DU Meter 2.20 is a powerful and user-friendly tool that will enable 
you to use your Internet connection more efficiently. DU Meter lets 
you see how much of your full bandwidth potential is actually utilized 
at any given point in time, either by displaying a real-time graph, 
numerical display, or both. It works with Dial-Up, ISDN, Cable Modem, 
and Ethernet cards. The current version presents several new features, 
including an auto-hide feature, an option to remove the DU Meter window 
caption, a great stopwatch which accurately times your downloads and 
reports the average transfer rates, plus full compatibility with 
Windows 95, Windows 98 and NT 4.0.

Installation
------------

DU Meter is installed simply by executing the self-installing EXE
file, DUMTR22.EXE. You will be asked for the target directory,
and then the installation program will copy all neccesary files there
and create two Start Menu items for DU Meter and its help file. After
that, it will execute DU Meter. You can access its menu by
right-clicking on the DU Meter icon in the tray, or on the open window.

Uninstallation
--------------

DU Meter can be completely removed from your system. In order to do
so, first be sure DU Meter is not running.  Then open the Control 
Panel and run the "Add/Remove Programs" applet. Then, you can select 
DU Meter from the list of installed programs, and click on the 
"Add/Remove..." button. You can also use the uninstall shortcut on 
the Programs menu in the DU Meter folder which is provided for your 
convenience. Please note that the uninstallation will be complete 
only after you reboot your system.
