This is a regularly scheduled weekly posting, which explains how you can
obtain a copy of the Microsoft Windows FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
list.  The Windows FAQ is an extensive compilation of Windows facts, tips,
techniques, bugs, applications, and other useful information.  The FAQ is
about 5500 lines long (in ASCII format) or 155K (as a ZIP archive of a 
Windows Help file).

All updates to the Windows FAQ and Windows Programmer FAQs are posted to the 
following two newsgroups:
	comp.binaries.ms-windows	WinHelp format
	comp.os.ms-windows.announce	ASCII text format
The updates are usually 30-60 days apart, depending on the amount of new
information and the maintainer's workload.

You can also FTP them from the following sites:
	ftp.pitt.edu 		/users/i/n/infidel/win/FAQ
	wuarchive.wustl.edu	/usenet/comp.binaries.ms-windows/faqs
Please do not abuse these sites; limit your FTP activity to time outside
business hours (ie 8 PM EST through 9 AM EST).

If the news postings have expired on your site, and you have no FTP access,
you can obtain it using the decwrl ftp mail server.  For instructions, send
a mail message to ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com with a body containing simply:
       help
You will receive a full set of instructions by return mail.
