   Sorry for the wasted bandwidth, but all you people asking about
Microsoft Windows-specific things may want to consider using the
Microsoft Windows newsgroups.  Since this newsgroup (comp.windows.misc)
is meant for issues concerning *all* windowing systems in general,
you're apt to get much better response in the MS-specific groups.
After all, would *you* trust the responses of people who don't know
enough to use the proper newsgroup(s)?
   Here's a list of newsgroups which specifically target Microsoft
Windows:
      comp.os.ms-windows.announce
      comp.os.ms-windows.misc
      comp.os.ms-windows.apps
      comp.os.ms-windows.setup
      comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.misc
      comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.tools
      comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32
      comp.os.ms-windows.advocacy

Thank you for your attention.
