DESCRIPTION OF Jay's Mouse Mover 
-----------------------------------------
Jay's Mouse Mover is a program that moves your mouse 
pointer so your system does not think it is idle.  Most
people use this program in conjunction with AllAdvantage,
Spedia, GetPaid4, Paybar, or one of many other paid to
surf programs.  This latest release has numerous options
to keep your connection alive with these services even
if you step away from your computer for dinner.


PROGRAM FEATURES
---------------------
 1. User specified delay between mouse movements or a
    random delay between mouse movements.
 2. Option to auto-hide the program after a user
    specified delay.
 3. Option for automatically starting / stopping the mouse 
    movement action after a user specified delay.
 4. Can move the program window anywhere on the screen.
 5. Program does not take up any space on the taskbar.
 6. Option to have the program restart automatically if
    Windows was closed and the program was still running.
 7. Option to place program in the system tray for quick
    access to features and the option to only show the 
    program in the system tray (Stealth Mode).
 8. Variable running option.  The user can specify that the
    mouse should move for X minutes and then stop moving 
    for Y minutes, then start again.  The user can also 
    specify a range for each of these values.  i.e. Move the
    mouse for 40-50 minutes then stop the mouse for 5-15
    minutes.  This simulates more of an actual person surfing.
 9. Option to load a web page every X minutes.  The program
    defaults with 70 of the top 100 web sites in the list and
    the user can maintain the list.  The user selects which
    web sites in the list can be loaded.  The user also has
    the option of loading the web sites in sequential order
    or random order.
10. Option to close popup windows from other services.  The 
    user can specify the delay for this option as well as 
    maintain the popup window list.  The list initializes with
    Windows NT Messenger Service, Microsoft Internet Explorer,
    NetWare Message Popup, and PayBar Friendly Reminder.
11. Option to load a web page after a popup window is
    closed, thus forcing the focus back to the browser.
12. Integration of e-mail and the product web site for FAQs,
    Downloads, Making Money links, and online registration.
