## Building

This application can be compiled using Visual Studio 2010 or newer, however an Authenticode-based Digital Signature check is integrated into the code to prevent incorrectly-signed or unsigned copies from running. Comment out lines 4-19 of `/RestrictionTracker/ApplicationEvents.vb` and lines 3-12 of `/RestrictionController/modRC.vb` to disable this signature checks before compiling if you wish to build your own copy.

This application is *not* designed to support Mono/Xamarin compilation and will not work on Linux or OS X systems. A Linux and OS X compatible release is available at [RealityRipple/Satellite-Restriction-Tracker-for-MONO](https://github.com/RealityRipple/Satellite-Restriction-Tracker-for-MONO), which uses the `/RestrictionLibrary/` DLL from this project.

## Documentation

Satellite Restriction Tracker grabs usage data off a ViaSat compatible service website via HTTPS and stores the data for graphed display, providing a historical account of usage for satellite Internet users.  

The configuration window provides access to all the application's features and options, and also facilitates the creation of a Portable version of the application.

Preferences are stored in the Application Data folder in a file called `user.config` of XML format, and passwords are encrypted using a simple RC4 methodology to prevent snooping.  

If the Windows Service feature is used, preferences are also stored in the ProgramData folder as well.  

The portable version stores its `user.config` file locally, of course.

The History window provides the option to import and export usage data in one of three formats: XML, CSV, or `.WB`, a proprietary binary database format. The location of the database can be customized through the Preferences window, as well.

Additional features include a quick-link to a network speed test or modem information page, system tray icon preferences, a custom notification system with customizable themes, and graph color selection options.  

Finally, a Remote Usage Service feature allows users to synchronize their data to a webserver, which gathers usage information every fifteen minutes, providing a full picture of Internet usage, even when this application is not running or the user's Internet access is down, for a small yearly maintenance fee.
