Web Forum Reader 2.0 Final is all you need to help you read Internet forums and conferences

Do you read Internet forums? If so, then you need Web Forum Reader.
Web Forum Reader is uniquely designed for reading Internet forums and conferences. You can easily add your favorite forums to Web Forum Reader to stay informed about updates and changes on these forums without loading them in your browser. Web Forum Reader saves you time by showing new and updated topics while hiding topics you have already read.

Web Forum Reader will also reduce the amount of data you download compared to regular reading using a browser. Use Web Forum Reader's handy Resource Addition Wizard to add Internet forums and conferences.

Main Features:

1. Convenience: Mark new topics, recently updated topics, and topics that you have already read.
2. Flexibility: Add various types of forums and Internet conferences.
3. Precision: The built-in browser automatically scrolls the page to the position where new posts were added to the topic.
4. Scheduling: The Scheduler feature will always keep you informed about changes in the forums you are interested in. Web Forum Reader will notify you about new and updated topics in forums as soon as they appear.
5. Favorites: Mark your most interesting forum topics as your favorites. Be alerted to new posts in these topics first.
6. Organization: See new and updated topics on all forums at once in one list.
7. Efficiency: Reduce data downloads and save on bandwidth costs.
8. Time savings: Show only new and updated topics while monitoring multiple forums.
9. Ease of use: Join several similar forums into groups. Synchronize grouped forums with a single click.
10. Multitasking: Use tabs to work with several forums simultaneously.

Enhancements:

• Due to changes in the topic database format, topics loaded before will be deleted when you upgrade from version 1.x to this version.
  
• Now it is possible to add more various forum types to Web Forum Reader: Forums requiring authentication are now supported / Now forums powered by JavaScript are supported.
  
• Now it is easier to add new resources to the program: The Resource Addition Wizard is now simpler to work with / If you add one forum from some site, the program can find and add the rest of the forums located on this site automatically.
  The new "Relearn Resource" command has been added to the context and main menu. It allows to set the new data extraction settings for the resources which are already added to Web Forum Reader.
  
• The context and main menus has been optimized: commands that are not available at the moment are no longer displayed.
  
• To make it easier to work with the information displayed in the main window, it is now possible to temporarily hide the "My Resources" panel using the link button in the lower part of the panel.
  
• Now it is possible to remove all topics from the Latest Topics list. The "Clear" button is now available on the corresponding tab.
  
• The settings of the resources already added to the program have been extended. New tabs are available in the Resource Properties window (to open it, you should right-click a resource and select the "Properties" command): "Columns Editing". On this tab you may assign names to the resource columns and remove unnecessary ones / "Changeable Columns". Here you can select columns and if the value of these columns changes (as a result of synchronization), the resource topic will be marked as updated.
  
• The Synchronization Manager window restores its size and position on the screen after you restart the program.
  
• Incorrect displaying some resources in the Resource Addition Wizard has been fixed.
  
• Bugs fixed.
