Hello,
   I am having a problem with Procomm Plus for Windows.  At the very end of
the setup, I get the error "General Protection Fault in module KRNL386.EXE 
at 0001:7295".  The program group is created fine, except the icons for
PCPLUS/Win, [Host], [Demo], [MCI], and [Login] are the icons from Write
files.  When I double click on any of those, I get the same above error.
The GIF viewer and the other prgs can be run without problems.  Below is
the DrWatson log:

I have a 386/25 with 4 megs of ram.  I tried reinstalling Windows, but that 
didn't work.  Any help anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
