       The fastest, most powerful file-retrieving robot on the Internet.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Congratulations!  You have obtained the most powerful offline browsing and
file-retrieving tool on the Internet.

Part Swiss Army knife, part chainsaw, Teleport Pro is a fully automated,
multithreaded, link-following, file-retrieving webspider.  It will retrieve
all the files you want -- and only the files you want -- from any part of the
Internet.  Teleport Pro can also

   - Completely download a website, enabling you to "offline browse" the site
     at much greater speeds than if you were to browse the site online
   - Create an exact duplicate, or "mirror" of a website, complete with
     subdirectory structure and all required files
   - Search a website for files of a certain type (and even size!)
   - Download a list of files from the Internet
   - Explore every website linked from a central website
   - Search a website for keywords
   - Make a list of all pages and files on a website

Want to offline browse a website?  Want to grab 400 sound files for a
multimedia presentation?  Looking for just the right background graphic?  A
list of every web page and file on a shareware site?  Found a huge archive of
great graphics -- but don't want to wait for each of them to download?  Found
a great link site, but don't have the time to check out every link?

No more waiting for slow pages to download.  No more clicking on links for
hours, only to find garbage at the end of your trail.

This document contains installation instructions for Teleport Pro for
Windows 95/NT.

Please be sure to read the README.TXT file which will be extracted after
Teleport Pro is installed.


=================================================
INSTALLING OVER PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF TELEPORT PRO
=================================================

No special steps required.  You do not need to uninstall a previous version
of Teleport Pro if it is already installed on your systems.  Just follow the
instructions below.

If you want to keep your original version of Teleport Pro intact, move it to
another directory, or install this version of Teleport Pro in a different
directory.


===============================
INSTALLING ON NTFS FILE SYSTEMS
===============================

The Teleport Pro setup program may fail to run if executed from a drive that
uses NTFS.  If this occurs, copy the installation files to a FAT drive, if
available, and run them from there.


=======================
INSTALLING TELEPORT PRO
=======================

Teleport Pro is distributed as a self-extracting zip archive, called pro12.exe.
To install it,

  1.  Create a temporary folder on your desktop.

  2.  Move the pro12.exe file into this temporary folder.

  3.  Double-click pro12.exe to run it.  It will extract the Teleport Pro
      setup program, SETUP.EXE, and related setup files.

  4.  Double-click the SETUP.EXE file in your temporary folder, and follow its 
      installation instructions.  NOTE:  Windows 95 may display an error
      message stating that one or more files "have been replaced with older
      versions by a program you just ran."  This is caused by SETUP, and is
      normal.  Windows will repair the files later, and it will not affect
      Teleport Pro's performance.

  5.  Once setup is complete, you may delete the temporary folder and its 
      contents from your desktop.

  6.  NOTE:  The SETUP program will create a "bin" directory in the folder
      where you install Teleport Pro.  This bin will contain two files,
      CLASSES.ZIP and JAVAP.EXE.  These files are needed for Java applet
      retrieval.  DO NOT UNZIP the CLASSES.ZIP file.


=========================
UNINSTALLING TELEPORT PRO
=========================

To uninstall Teleport Pro, simply run "Uninstall Teleport Pro" from your
Start Menu.  The uninstall program will erase the program files, registry
entries, and shortcuts related to Teleport Pro from your hard disk.  Your
project files and any retrieved files will NOT be erased by the uninstaller.

You can also run the Uninstaller using the Windows 95 "Add/Remove Programs"
utility in the Control Panel.  Double-click the "Add/Remove Programs" icon
in the Control Panel, then select "Teleport Pro" and press the "Add/Remove"
button.

Please note that uninstalling Teleport Pro will not delete files that you
have retrieved using the program.
