What Is SmartUpdate?
SmartUpdate is a Netscape Netcenter service that allows Netscape-related software to be automatically and securely installed on your machine in a single step. You can use SmartUpdate to download and install the latest version of Netscape Communicator and a variety of add-on components from selected Netscape partners. For example, you can use SmartUpdate to add PalmPilot synchronization and 3M Post-it software to your basic Netscape Communicator installation.
Why should you use SmartUpdate? Well, it makes for shorter download times over traditional downloading. (Netscape says you save more than 15 minutes if you're downloading the complete Netscape Communicator file.) You also receive email notification as new versions of your installed software become available.
