Download of the Month: Browser Recorder
Once upon a time, true PC power users did everything with long strings of keystrokes-- Alt-W\N1-Alt-A..., yadda yadda. Before long those repetitive keystroke series began to get in the way, and keystroke-recording-and-playback batch files and utilities soon debuted.
Then along came Windows and the Internet. Now it's just click, click, click, all the livelong day. The increase in secure Web applications that require you to enter user names, passwords, and search criteria creates a need for programs that record and replay on-screen input.
NQL's free Browser Recorder plug-in for Internet Explorer records the clicks, form entries, and other data you enter to log into, navigate, and search a site. Save the recorded session as a link (similar to a bookmark), and play back the entire session with a single click. You can even password-protect sensitive sessions. You can also download the 1.43MB program from the author's page.
