on a network, so you needn’t to input user names manually.

You don’t need to have Internet access and any special servers to work with

(IAD) provides a set of actions specific to Internet addresses. IAD can

host addresses. With MacPopUp you can send any Internet addresses of
described above to a recipient at the other end who only needs to click on
an address instead of typing a long string.
