Note to MSWord 6.0, 7.0-owners:
If you own Microsoft Word, please see the readme.doc
file instead. This file is for those users without a word
processor.
***********************************************************
Important Note to PKZip 2.04g Users:
If you didn't use WinZip(R) Version 6.0 or above to unzip
the, "Bugs on My Desktop!" animated cursor scheme, long
file names are not supported, and you are missing the,
"Sandhills Hornet 2.cur" cursor file. PkZip 2.04g over-
writes this file because it does not support long file
names. To correct this problem, unzip the BgCurV11.zip
file into a new directory using WinZip(R) Version 6.0 or
above. You can get this file from the, "Animated Cursor
Schemes for Windows '95 (TM)" WWW site:
http://www.islandnet.com/~wwseb/cursors.htm
If you've received this file from the, "Windows '95
Secrets," CD-ROM, WinZip(R) may be found on the CD-ROM.
***********************************************************

rid of these should you decide not to keep them.
If, after *7* days you decide to keep these cursors,
however, you must send in a registration fee of $4.95
(US).
If you find these cursors agreeable, please send your
check or money order to:
