| What
is the Turbo Hot List? |
| Turbo
Resources is always offering special sales promotions
and looking for good parts to buy. You may have already
seen some of these part numbers in a Fax or e-mail. The
Turbo Hot List is a list of these part numbers on Turbo
Resources' Web site. |
| |
| What
does this program do for me? |
| The
Turbo Hot List program, once installed on your computer,
will periodically look at Turbo Resources' Web site and
notify you when new part numbers are added to the Turbo
Hot List. |
| |
| I've
installed the Turbo Hot List program but I can't find
it. Where is it? |
| The
Turbo Hot List program is designed to be as inconspicuous
as possible. When the program is started it adds a globe
icon in the system tray. The system tray is on the start
bar and is typically on the bottom right corner of the
screen. If you see a little blue globe there then the
Turbo Hot List program is active. |
| |
| What
if I only want to see certain parts and not everything
in the list? |
| The
Turbo Hot List program can easily be configured to look
for parts of a certain application and specific part numbers.
When you have it configured you will only see the part
numbers you want to see. |
| |
| How
do I configure it? |
| The
first time the Turbo Hot List program starts it will show
you the configuration options. You can place a check mark
next to the applications you like, indicate specific part
numbers, tell it to look at the sales promotions and/or
wanted lists, tell it how often you want it to check for
new part numbers and personalize it with your name, company
and e-mail address. Once the program is started you can
change the configuration options by right-clicking on
the globe icon in the system tray and selecting "Configure"
from the menu. |
| |
| How
does it tell me when new parts have been added to the
Turbo Hot List? |
| One
of the configuration options is "Popup When New Parts
are Listed." If this box is checked the Turbo Hot
List program will automatically open a browser window
with the Turbo Hot List parts. If that box is not checked
then the globe icon in the system tray will flash red.
Simply double click the globe and you will see the Turbo
Hot List parts. |
| |
| The
Turbo Hot List program keeps opening a browser window
when I'm working on something else. How can I stop it
from doing that? |
| One
of the configuration options is "Popup When New Parts
are Listed." Uncheck that box and the globe icon
in the system tray will flash red when new parts are found.
Simply double click the globe and you will see the Turbo
Hot List parts. |
| |
| The
Turbo Hot List program isn't telling me there are new
parts but I want to see the list anyway. What can I do? |
| Simply
double click the globe in the system tray and you will
see the Turbo Hot List parts. |
| |
| I've
double clicked the system tray icon or I've selected an
option from the menu but it's not showing me the Web page.
What can I do? |
| The
browser on some Windows computers is a bit slow when starting
up. If the Web page does not appear in a few minutes then
make sure your Internet connection is working and check
the configuration of the browser. |
| |
| My
computer isn't always connected to the Internet because
I use a dial-up service. Can the Turbo Hot List program
still work for me? |
| Yes
it can. In the configuration options of the Turbo Hot
List program set the time interval to "Manually."
Whenever you are connected to the Internet right-click
on the globe in the system tray and select "Check
Now" from the menu. If any new parts are on the list
then you will see them. If you use this method then the
Turbo Hot List program will only check for new parts when
you are on-line. |
| |
| Why
does my computer some times ask me to dial my Internet
service provider? |
| The
Turbo Hot List program uses the same Internet connection
that is configured for your Internet browser. If you are
using a dial-up service for Internet access and you are
not connected when the Turbo Hot List program checks for
new parts then you may be asked to dial your provider.
In the configuration options of the Turbo Hot List program
you can set the time interval to "Manually."
Whenever you are connected to the Internet right-click
on the globe in the system tray and select "Check
Now" from the menu. If any new parts are on the list
then you will see them. If you use this method then the
Turbo Hot List program will only check for new parts when
you are on-line. |
| |
| What
else can the Turbo Hot List program do? |
| The
Turbo Hot List program can also take you directly to Turbo
Resources' Web site. Right-click on the globe in the system
tray and you can select "Visit www.TurboResources.com"
or in the "Contact" menu you can select "E-mail
RFQ", "Register for Mailing List", "Customer
Satisfaction Survey", or get help (this FAQ page). |
| |
| Is
the Turbo Hot List program spying on me? |
| No.
The only information that it looks at is its own configuration
options. |
| |
| Will
there be support for the Mac or Unix computers? |
| No.
There are no plans to support any operating systems other
than Windows 98, Windows 2000 and later versions. |
| |
| How
do I remove the Turbo Hot List program from my computer? |
| In
the Windows control panel select "Add/Remove Programs."
This utility can remove the Turbo Hot List program. |
