Does anyone know what the story is about autodoubler's interaction with
Norton Speed-disk (de-fragmentation)?
And does anyone know if autodoubler is on the net?  has an email address
of any kind?

I installed autodoubler yesterday, and it did save about 7 or 8MB out
of my 33MB used (10MB of which is system stuff it won't touch)...not bad.
But I think it marks all files as of its own type.  So, when i reboot
from my speed disk diskette and run speed disk, two problems:
1.  (minor) instead of sorting applications separately from documents, it
shuffles 'em together...presmuably because the applications look like documents
to norton.
2.  it trashes the desktop file...icons become generic, double-clicking on
documents won't launch the owning application, etc.   this is fixed by
rebuilding the desktop (command-option held down during reboot, i used
the autodoubler extension, but don't know if that's necessary)...but it's
a bit of a pain...

i tried copying the autodoubler control panel to my speed disk diskette
to see if that would make speed disk understand the actual file types...
but didn't seem to work.  i just did the check-disk command in speed disk
and move the magnifying glass cursor around to check out some files, and it
still showed excel and word as documents, not applications...

fyi...config...autodoubler 1.0.6i.  pb170.sys7.01. 7up1.1.1.  Norton 1.1.
speed disk diskette made by using 7.0.1 installer to create min system,
moving system file to top level, trashing everything else, coping speed
disk over to it and renaming it to finder.  when run it creates preferences
folder.  i just copied autodoubler control panel to the top level, same
as system file.

oh, also, the first run of speed disk left a couple "unknown" files hanging
out in the open, not continguous with the others, as well as the desktop db.
i clicked to optimize again, and it fixed that.  strange.  never seen that
symptom before, so suspect it's autodoubler-related?

so...any suggestions?  or contact info for autodoubler to ask them?

thanks!
