Doesn't run in automated mode, no option to email change alerts. Resizing form doesn't expand the fields. It worked once for me, then gave an error every time after that on my test web page.

Pros
Free.
Cons
First of all, I added one webpage for this program to check. An error code was the result of the first and only attempt to check the page (as I uninstalled this software within 3 minutes of installing it). Also, this program will only watch an entire page. If you want to monitor a small section of a page for, say, a change in the price of an item, there are no options to do this. If **anything** on the page changes, you will be alerted. I could not, in my 3 minutes of using this program, find any options on expanding the monitoring from whole-page montoring to a more tailored, detailed monitor. Also, the online help file and default web address loaded into the program (the website for the creator of the program) are dead sites. Does not bode well... Don't bother with this program. Move along, nothing to see here.
Summary
Excellent program, works as described

Summary
This program makes you "buy the full version on-line" but when you goto the web page it tells you that the program is now free and gives you the activation code of "Aiendhy87e" (This will save you from going to the website)
I unistalled it because I wanted something that would be in the system tray, not on the task bar. If it was updated to go to the system tray I would load it again.
looks great but
