Current functionality

Current functionality (as of January 2008)

* Web page tracking - Still has a high level of functionality for most page types.
* Search engine based searches - Nil to limited for search engine based searches as there have been changes in the way that online search engines such as Google, yahoo etc receive search requests since bullseye was last updated, therefore the program is incompatible with most search engines.
