| Package: websec
| Description: Web Secretary - Web page monitoring software
|  A visual Web page monitoring software. However, it goes
|  beyond the normal functionalities offered by such software. Not only
|  does it detect changes based on content analysis (instead of date/time
|  stamp or simple textual comparison), it will email the changed page to
|  you with the new content highlighted.
