Well, I just loaded the Compuserve browser on my box with little side effects. I have numerous browsers loaded including Mosaic, Netscape, EMosaic, etc. and none were adversely affected. What did happen - AND THE INSTALL SOFTWARE LET YOU KNOW THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING - was that all of the winsock.dll's that it could find were renamed to winsock.000. Matter of fact, if I recall you had to click OK for the rename to occur. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your point of view :-) it did not load another winsock.dll into any of those directories like /windows. So I simply renamed all of those winsock.000 back to winsock.dll. No problems - all of the various browsers that I use were unaffected by the install. I do like the Compuserve Browser - ok I know that it is Spry Mosaic. Since compuserve bought Spry, I guess they can call it anything they want! What bothers me about the message is how folks are wanting to sue at the drop of a hat. grumble... grumble.... -betsy -------------------------------------------------------------- Betsy Dunphy Voice: (703) 406-4440 Aesir Computing, Inc.
