I have to admit I love the about box.  At the same time, I also understand how
hard it is to fit several virus tools on a disk to bring to someone's dead
machine.   What would be nice would be a program to take out the extra 20
kilobytes, preferably posted near disinfectant.  THis will enlarge the scope of
those who know about the about box, theywill take a look before deciding
if they want to keep it (I'll keep it on my hard drive), but it will
take away the fun and surprise of discovering the wonderful about box.
