Finger Thingy v2.1 32bit README.TXT -------------------------------- Finger Thingy 2.1 Finger Thingy is both a fully functional Finger Client and Server. Finger clients are used for seeing who's logged onto a computer, many ISPs run Finger servers on their Dialup computers allowing other users (with a finger client) to see who's logged on and what their IP address is. The servers are mainly run on Unix computers but now with Finger Thingy you too can allow other users to find out more about you. To see what other users can se when they finger your computer try this simple test ..Fill out the Server details in Setup, then enter 127.0.0.1 in the host address and click Long Finger ...what've you've just done is finger your self!
