Are you SURE you got rid of all the dregs of WFWTCP, and have properly
filled in [Setup...] and [DNS...] particularly the radio buttons for DNS
versus HOSTS file? I've been using the March Beta for quite awhile and
it literally flies compared to WFWTCP which never seemed to quite have all
its wheels on the road and initially took so much low memory away that
WFW couldn't even load, and which I deleted all traces of.

Seems to be the most oft asked question - they made it too easy:
Open "Network Setup" icon in Network group select [Drivers...],
[Add protocol...], Unlisted or Updated..., [Browse...] to location
where you expanded mtcpb1.exe - it will find an oemsetup.inf here
that does all the work, [OK] back out, select TCP/IP-32 protocol,
after it copies files go into [Setup..] to set IP address, gateway,
subnetmask, etc. and [DNS...] to select DNS radio buttons and enter
your Name Server IP's, [OK] out and after Restart you're there. Voila!
If you want to get rid of it, temporarily or permanently, retrace the
steps select it and hit [Remove]. It's just like NetBEUI or any other
WFW protocol instead of some foreign appendage - how refreshing!

Subject: EUDORA: Adds strange characters!


I am using Eudora for Windows (the non-commercial version) and am having a
problem when I send out letters.

When the letters are received on other systems like America Online, a
mysterious   =20     shows up in several places. It seems to be at the end
of where the normal word wrap would be.


Anybody know what causes this or how to stop it?

Best - David

    You need both binhex and unstuff (or unsit), which are available
on Simtel.  You will probably loose the icons and illustrations, but
the final document is quite serviceable.
