December 1996 Reviews This Month
By Tom Ponzo
Disconnect's mission is simple: to warn you when you've left a forgotten online connection active, and to disconnect you before you've racked up too many charges. I am truly amazed that no one thought of this before.
Let's say you're logged onto an ISP when you need to check an Excel spreadsheet. You move to Excel, and then receive a call asking you to double-check your database. Now juggling two applications at once, you've forgotten that your online clock is ticking expensively away.
No problem. After a predetermined time you'll hear a voice, "Warning from Disconnect!" Ignore that, and a second warning will sound.
If you don't respond to the second warning, Disconnect will terminate the connection at the third time interval entered in setup, saving you precious online time, as well as a great deal of money. It works like a charm.
