Executor requires the MS CD-ROM Extension (MSCDEX) to read a Mac format 
CD, Windows 95 uses the new CDFS within the GUI.  When you boot or shell 
out to MS DOS mode, Win 95 switches back to MSCDEX to let you use the 
CD-ROM, that's why Executor can see Mac CDs only under MS DOS mode (not 
MS DOS session).
