 Browse Dozens of Web Pages, Edit Dozens of Microsoft Office documents simultaneously with Research-Desk's Patent-Pending User Interface!
Research-Desk's innovative yet intuitive user interface is based on a tabbed document metaphor - with each tab representing a single open document. Use the Document Tab Bar or the Layer Manager to easily switch between web pages. You can also tile and arrange windows to view them side-by-side.



Uses proven Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer technology and file formats

 Create workspaces
When you use tabs to open multiple documents it's called a workspace.



For example, you can have a workspace containing:
  • 2 PowerPoint presentations
  • 3 web pages
  • 2 Excel spreadsheets
You can save all of these documents together in one workspace. When you want to access that information, say the following morning, you only have to open that one workspace. Research-Desk will automatically open all associated documents. This time saving feature eliminates the need to individually locate and open each file. You can even email the workspace to a co-worker, which makes sharing files and research much easier!


 Search Workspace
Looking for something? It’s easy to search with Research-Desk! Simply type in the word or a phrase that you’re looking for and hit Go. Research-Desk will search across all open documents and generate a clickable list of Search results.


 Integrated Google Search Box
In Research-Desk, we've created a shortcut with a list of the most popular search engines. In the browser window, you'll now see a Google search box. Simply type in what you'd like to search for and then select which search engine (e.g. Google, Yahoo, or Dictionary) that you'd like to search. After you hit enter, you'll be taken directly to the search results.



 Grammar and Spell Checking Features
Research-Desk enables you to use the full editing capabilities of Microsoft Word - including grammar and spell checking - when entering text in web page text areas. You can save the text after entering it, and even insert a Word document into the text area.


 Block popups, Flash and ActiveX with one click
With one click, easily block or allow popups, Flash and ActiveX.




 Save Complete Web Pages for future reference, even save secure server pages to keep online transaction receipts
Research-Desk's patent pending PageSnap™ technology saves an accurate representation of a web page (including frames, style sheets, images, java, links, etc) as single file. The web page saving feature is significantly more advanced than that of Microsoft Internet Explorer - it works much faster, saves framed web pages, saves secure server (HTTPS) web pages, and much more.

You can even save web pages as PDF's


 Integrated File Transfer Manager
Stream FTP and HTTP File Downloads with Research-Desk, and automatically check downloaded files for viruses
  • Intelligently streams file downloads in the background
  • Simultaneously download several files from HTTP and FTP servers
  • Pause and resume interrupted downloads
  • Rename or move files even while they are being downloaded
  • Monitor individual file downloads with the Download Bar
  • Automatically check downloaded files for viruses (requires McAfee VirusScan, Norton AntiVirus or other third-party virus scanner)

Monitor all file downloads with the File Transfer Manager or individual file downloads with Download Bars. Research-Desk can pause and resume downloads, and it even overlaps interrupted downloads to ensure file integrity. You can rename or move files even while they are being downloaded. And, when the file is completely downloaded, Research-Desk automatically scans the file with your virus scanner (requires McAfee, or other virus scanner). Other features include automatic support for HTTP redirection, automatic Passive and Active FTP support, and automatic proxy server setup and support.
