URL Manager Pro 2.8 is an update of the popular bookmark manager. In particular, the audience of this version is Mac OS 8 users. Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X users are advised to start using URL Manager Pro 3.0, which is a Carbon application.

URL Manager Pro 3.0 requires Mac OS 9 and therefore Mac OS 8 users can not use it. URL Manager Pro 2.8 makes sure that Mac OS 8 users still can profit from the improvements made to URL Manager Pro's code as we move along to Mac OS X. URL Manager Pro 2.8 fixes bugs, but also adds new features (see below).

URL Manager Pro 2.8 requires Mac OS 8.1 or higher. If you are still running Mac OS 8.0, you should have no problem downloading the Mac OS 8.1 update from Apple.

New features:

• Support for Opera : Support for the new exciting web browser from Norway.
• File Recent menu : This new sub menu in the File menu lists the last 10 documents you opened.
• Validate command : Checks and validates links using Apple's URL Access extension.
