[Installation]
If you have installed the old version, you should uninstall it first.

The default installation used 96M VM.  For large site testing, you may adjust it depending on your need
and the memory you have (eg 128M)

In order to be compatible with Mac OS X users, JRE 1.5 is no longer necessary.

users to intercept, modify and debug HTTP and HTTPS data on-the-fly between web
server and client browser. It also supports spidering, proxy-chaining, filtering
and application vulnerability scanning.
