About CommView for WiFi
=======================

CommView for WiFi is a special edition of CommView designed for
capturing and analyzing network packets on wireless 802.11a/b/g/n
networks. It gathers information from the wireless adapter and
decodes the analyzed data.

With CommView for WiFi you can see the list of network
connections and vital IP statistics and examine individual
packets. Packets can be decrypted utilizing user-defined WEP or 
WPA keys and are decoded down to the lowest layer, with full 
analysis of the most widespread protocols. Full access to raw 
data is also provided. Captured packets can be saved to log files
for future analysis. A flexible system of filters makes it 
possible to drop unnecessary packets or capture the essential 
packets. Configurable alarms can notify the user about important
events, such as suspicious packets, high bandwidth utilization, or
unknown addresses.

CommView® 

CommView is a program for monitoring Internet and Local Area Network
(LAN) activity capable of capturing and analyzing network packets. It
gathers information about data passing through your dial-up connection
or Ethernet card and decodes the analyzed data. With CommView you can
see the list of network connections and vital IP statistics and
examine individual packets. Packets are decoded down to the lowest
layer with full analysis of the most widespread protocols. Full access
to raw data is also provided in real time. CommView is a helpful tool
for LAN administrators, security professionals, network programmers,
or anyone who wants to have a full picture of the traffic going
through one's PC or LAN segment.

CommTraffic®

CommTraffic is a network utility for collecting, processing, and
displaying traffic and network utilization statistics for network
connections, including LAN and dial-up. It shows traffic and network
utilization statistics for each computer in the segment. The software
provides a very attractive and customizable interface, with an
optional tray icon menu that displays general network statistics.
You can also generate reports that reflect the network traffic volume
and Internet connection expenses (if any). CommTraffic supports
virtually any rate plan your ISP might use, such as the one based on
connection time, traffic volume, time of the day, and other measures.
You can set alarms that will inform you when certain criteria (e.g.
amount of traffic, expenses) are reached. A configuration wizard
will guide you through the setup and automatically detect your
network or connection settings.

NetResident®

NetResident is an advanced network content monitoring program that
captures, stores, analyzes, and reconstructs network events such as
e-mail messages, Web pages, downloaded files and instant messages.
NetResident uses advanced monitoring technology to capture the
required data from the network, saves it to a database, reconstructs
it, and displays this content in an easy-to-understand format. While
NetResident is similar to network analyzers in many respects, it
focuses on high-level protocols that are used to transfer content over
the Internet or LAN. With NetResident, you don't need a profound
understanding of networking technologies, have to use complex packet
capturing and analysis software, or dig through network packets in
order to reconstruct the actual data; NetResident does all the work
for you and presents only the Web pages, e-mails, instant messages, or
downloaded files as requested. NetResident is used by network
administrators to enforce IT policy, parents to monitor their
children's communication on the Internet, and by forensic experts to
gain crucial information.

DigiSecret®

DigiSecret is an easy-to-use, secure, and powerful application for
file encryption and sharing. It utilizes strong and time-proven
encryption algorithms for creating encrypted archives,
self-extracting EXE files, and sharing files with your associates
and friends. DigiSecret also includes powerful and intelligent file
compression; you no longer need .zip files when you can have
encrypted and compressed DigiSecret files. The program is integrated
with the Windows shell, and you can perform operations on files by
right-clicking on them. It also fully supports drag-and-drop
operations.

Essential NetTools™

Essential NetTools is a set of network tools useful in diagnosing
networks and monitoring your computer's network connections. It's a
Swiss Army knife for everyone interested in a set of powerful
network tools for everyday use. The program includes a NetStat
utility that shows your computer's network connections and open
ports and maps them to the owning application. It also features a
fast NetBIOS scanner, a NetBIOS Auditing Tool for checking LAN
security, and a monitor of external connections to your computer's
shared resources, as well as a process monitor that displays
information about all the programs and services running on your
computer. Other useful tools are included, such as Ping, TraceRoute,
and NSLookup. Additional features include report generation in HTML,
text, and comma delimited formats and a customizable interface.
The program is an easy-to-use and powerful replacement for such
Windows utilities as nbtstat, netstat, and NetWatcher. It
incorporates many advanced features that standard Windows tools
can't offer.

SmartWhois®

SmartWhois is a handy utility for obtaining information about any
IP address, hostname, or domain in the world. Unlike standard whois
utilities, it automatically delivers information associated with an
IP address or domain no matter where it is registered geographically.
In just a few seconds, you get all you want to know about a user:
domain, network name, country, state or province, and city. Even if
the IP address cannot be resolved to a hostname, SmartWhois won't
fail!

CountryWhois®

CountryWhois is a utility for identifying the geographic location of 
an IP address. CountryWhois can be used to analyze server logs, check 
e-mail address headers, identify online credit card fraud, or in any 
other instance where you need to quickly and accurately determine the 
country of origin by IP address.
