When I called the PCTools bulletin board they specifically indicated that
they did not want the upgrade posted elsewhere. If you actually want
the PC Shell and PC Desktop (?, I forget the name of the other large file)
I suggest buying the upgrade, only $20 and you get the manual. It was a
moderate hassle just to download and decript the utilities.
