Uses various network and Internet-related commands such as ping, finger, whois, etc. from a user interface situated in the tray area. Select the tab corresponding to the command you're interested in and enter the IP address or hostname of the target.
IP Search Capabilities and Features:
System Tray Icon: IP Search Toolbar creates a small floating toolbar and places an icon in the system tray. The toolbar can be easily banished from your desktop and just as easily retrieved by double clicking on the system tray icon.
- DNS Lookup: IP Address / Hostname lookups.
- Finger: Allows you to specify the finger port. Results from Finger and Whois queries go in separate windows from which they can be saved, printed or copied to the clipboard.
- Whois: Allows you to specify the whois port and server or to choose from a modifiable a list of servers.
- Ph: Retrieves email, telephone and other information from any Ph server. Updates the Ph server list from the Internet.
- Time: Retrieves exact time. Can synchronize your PC's clock with an Internet time server.
- Ping: Yes, ping.
- MultiPing: Ping up to a whole subnet at once. Unlike other scanning utilities, IP Search doesn't Ping the machines one at a time. You can PInG an entire subnet in a few seconds, and you can choose how long to wait for replies.
- SOCKS 4 Support: All functions except Ping/MultiPing can be used through a firewall using the SOCKS 4 protocol.
- Non-blocking: Ever notice how Internet programs hang temporarily during certain network operations? Netscape users, does this ring any bells? I hate that! Which is why this program never does that! You can cancel any operation instantly, and operations don't affect eachother, e.g. you can finger somebody and do a whois query at the same time.
