I've got a complete win95 installation ( i.e. all the possible options ) AND PLUS! for win95. I connect regularly to MSN, and to the internet with dial up networking. I'm using the 32bit version 1.2b6 of netscape navigator. No problems encountered with either MSN or any winsock software - I haven't re-tried all my winsock apps but Pegasus, Eudora, Free Agent, WS_FTp both 16 and 32 bit, MUTT....are all ok. BoB!
