WHAT IS IT?

   Cache View is a viewer for the Netscape Navigator(TM) Cache. 

   You can open the cached files for viewing, and copy or move them 
   out of the cache. It will even reconstruct the names and directory 
   paths of the files for you. Cache View can also export the cache 
   listing to a CSV file for importing into databases or spreadsheets.
   Cache View makes emptying the files in the cache easier than ever. 
   The intuitive Windows 95 interface makes Cache View easy to learn 
   and even easier to use. 

   Cache View supports all versions of Netscape, up to and including
   Netscape 6.2.  Cache View also supports Internet Explorer.

   Cache View extracts the following information about cached files 
   from the fat.db file:
   URL, Size (in bytes), MIME Type, Last modified date, Date the file 
   was downloaded, and the Expiry date.

   Cache View is a 32 bit Windows program, and so requires Windows 95,
   98, NT, 2000, or Xp.

WHATS NEW?

   Major changes for this version :
     - Added the "Export to CSV" function.
     - Performance increases when decoding all cache types
     - Minor bugfixes to fix memory problems.
   Check the help file for a full list of changes.

REGISTRATION

   Cache View is a feature limited shareware program.  This means that
   you may happily use the program for as long as you like without 
   paying for it.  BUT, you only have access to the basic feature set.
   That is, new features added since the last freeware version are 
   only accessible if you register.

   If you find this software useful, I ask that you register it.  I
   would appreciate the support so that I can continue to provide 
   applications to the world at large at relatively little cost.
   As a bonus for registering, you get to use the new features from V2.1, 
   such as support for Netscape Profiles, and free upgrades to all new
   versions that get released.

   To register, visit http://www.progsoc.uts.edu.au/~timj/cv/

   The registration fee is only US$15.  Thats a good deal.

INSTALLATION

    Make sure you uninstall any previous version of Cache View before 
    installing this version.
    Then just unzip and run the Setup.exe program.
    You may have to go into the View->Options menu the first time 
    you run Cache View to specify your cache directory.
