Please note - if you already have a Fetch installed on your computer, or plan to use Fetch from our computer labs, skip ahead to the section on using Fetch

Step 1 - Download Fetch

Older version - free for as long as you want to use it. This is the version we recommend you use
MacUpdate Fetch version 3.03

A word about the newer version...
Fetch has been going thru some changes lately. Jim Matthews, who created Fetch bought the rights to his FTP client from Dartmouth College and founded Fetch Softworks with his winnings on the U.S. television game show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire."

"Fetch 4.0" costs $25 for individual use, though free serial numbers are available for educational or charitable organizations. If you are a student and want to apply for a free version of Fetch visit this Web page. We do not recommend you download the new version at this time because it is not supported by the lab staff, and the new software makes it harder to enter the "directory" setting on gracie.
