Wysigot Light

Wysigot Light is a web monitoring application able to capture Internet sites, keep an eye on downloading sessions, and show updated information from web pages by highlighting it.

This tool comes in handy for all users who need to monitor weather, stock exchange or other web-based apps with frequent content updates, as it stores the newly modified information in a separate category and offers direct access to it, thanks to a built-in web browser.

Once you run the application, you are guided to add a new address to the list. You are required to specify the URL and name of the website, and indicate how often should Wysigot Light verify webpage updates (automatically, periodically or manually).

You can make the program capture only the first page, the first page and its linked sites, or the whole site, as well as deactivate scripts, ActiveX and cookies.

You may export generated information or the whole database for offline viewing and pick a default saving directory, as well as specify the maximum file size of the directory and compression level. The pages can be printed or saved to HTML, plain text or image files.

The application gives users the possibility to import the favorites list from Internet Explorer, change proxy settings, and pick the highlighting color for the updated sections.

Other important features worth mentioning enable you to create blacklists with URLs to be ignored, view the images, scripts, and other files for different pages, set up alarms when the program detects changes within the selected web pages, and perform searches throughout the downloaded pages.

You can configure the downloading parameters by making the program grab images, cookies, scripts, Java information, videos, sounds, or popup windows.

Overall, Wysigot Light keeps you up-to-date with the latest changes on different websites. Unfortunately, the GUI is not very intuitive and you may spend some time configuring the dedicated parameters.
