                                   Summary
                                  
Protect applications that are not multitask friendly from your screen saver such
as downloads, faxes, backup software, hard disk utilities, and other resource 
intense programs.  Some screen savers are very resource intense and thus slowing
down the entire system.  So if you are like me you need a way to control your 
screen saver.  SS Extender is the way.

Do you have high security access to your network, mid-range computer, mainframe?
Tired of having to log out when you leave your computer unattended to prevent
people from using your user access on your computer while you are away.
Yes a password protected screen saver will do the job but, how do you control 
when it activates.  With SS Extender, that is how!  With SS Extender you control 
when the screen activates and when it doesn't.  Disabling the screen saver is a 
simple click of an icon in the sytem tray.  Starting the screen saver is a simple 
double click of the same icon.  A right click brings up a menu with options to 
run the current screen saver settings, run the display settings, and all of the 
shutdown options for windows. This utility is a must for any serious windows user.

SS Extender is fully Windows 95 compatible including an uninstall option.  SS Extender 
has been test under Window NT 4.0 beta 1 and seems to run fine.

SS Extender is a shareware program you have a 30 day evaluation and then a 10 day 
grace period to use SS Extender.  It is fully functional during this 30 day eval 
with no nag screens.  See license.txt for licensing information.  See order.txt for
ordering information.

************
Installation
************

1.  First the installation program and SS Extender require the VB 4.0 32 
    bit runtime library, VB40032.DLL.  This dll can be downloaded from many
    on-line services, AOL, and from the internet at 
    http://users.aol.com/bradwyoung/files.htm
2.  After you have the VB runtime library in you windows\system directory,
    unzip the ssextend.zip to a temporary directory and run setup.exe. The setup
    program will install SS Extender on your machine and create a shortcut in the
    StartUp folder.
3.  After the installation is complete go to the start menu Programs-StartUp-SS Extender
    to run.  	

************
Uninstalling
************

1.  Go to Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel
2.  Select SS Extender in the list box and click the Add/Remove button


************
Tip
************  
    If files that SS Extender did not install are in the SS Extender directory
    the uninstall program will be unable to remove the SS Extender directory.
    So, you can go the the explorer and delete the directory manually.
