net.demon - features

This complete suite of Internet utilities is integrated into one user-friendly interface. Instead of the tabbed dialog box used by most internet toolkits, net.demon uses the Windows MDI (multiple document interface), which means you can run multiple tools from within the same session. It also has a built-in text editor, so you can view data you may have saved from a previous session. This program includes the standard Internet tools such as whois, finger, traceroute, ping, and many others.
