Thank you for purchasing the InfoMagic WinSite CD-ROM Set. This CD-Set is
a snapshot of the WinSite archive as of25 March 1996. Some files in the
archive cannot be distributed commercially and these have been left as
links to http://www.winsite.com. Some older files from the archive have
been also been removed. These are still available at www.winsite.com, but
many no longer function with current versions of Microsoft Windows. The
Windows 95 & Windows NT archives are complete as they were on
www.winsite.com as of the production date.
This CD set is mastered in ISO-9660 Level 1 format, meaning all
filenames have been converted to uppercase. This is to insure
compatibility with Windows NT 3.51 and DOS which cannot read lower
case files or directories. Some files appear with long names and
extensions when viewed with Windows NT or Windows 95. DOS will see
truncated filenames and extensions.
We have provided copies of the Microsoft Internet Explorer for
Windows 3.1, Windows 95 and Windows NT. These are in the "explorer"
subdirectory in the root of the CD-ROM. If you do not already have a
WWW browser installed on your system, you will want to install
whichever version matches your operating system so you can use the
included "html" files to access the archives. The instructions for
installing each version of the Microsoft Explorer appear below.
Once you complete that installation, or if you already have a WWW
browser installed, simply open the file "index.htm" in the root
directory of the CD. Each CD in the set contains an "index.htm" file
that references the files on that CD. The entire Windows 95 &
Windows NT archives are contained on Disc 4. The Windows 3.1 archive
is spread across Discs 1, 2, and 3. For ease of locating files the
complete index of Windows 3.1 software is available on each of the 3
Windows 3.1 discs with an indication of which CD each catagory is on.
Please see our complete product catalog and ordering information in
the file "catalog.txt" in the root directory of the CD.

INSTALLING MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER FOR WINDOWS 95
=====================================================
Since the shareware on this CD is 32-bit, all of it will run on Windows
95, and the large majority of it will run on Windows NT. We have
included versions of the Internet Explorer Web browser for both
of these platforms.
To install Internet Explorer for Windows 95:
1. Click the Start menu
2. Click Run
3. Type d:\explorer\msie20.exe
(This assumes that your CD-ROM drive is drive D:. If your CD-ROM drive
uses a different drive letter, type that letter instead.)
INSTALLING MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER FOR WINDOWS NT
=====================================================
To install Internet Explorer for Windows NT:
1. Open the File Manager
2. From the File menu, click Run
3. Type d:\explorer\msie15i386.exe
(This assumes that your CD-ROM drive is drive D:. If your CD-ROM drive
uses a different drive letter, type that letter instead.)
INSTALLING MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER FOR WINDOWS 3.1(1)
=========================================================
The Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows 3.1(1) is a 32-bit
application and requires that you either already have the Win32S
libraries loaded on your system, or install those libraries prior to
running the explorer. A copy of these is provided in the "explorer"
directory as PW1118.EXE
To install the Win32S libraries:
1. Create a temporary directory on your hard disk.
2. Either "cd" to the temporary directory and execute "PW1118.EXE"
from the "explorer" directory on the CD, or move this file to the
temporary directory and "double-click" on it from the file
manager.
3. Run "setup.exe" from the temporary directory to start the
installation.
4. You may delete the temporary directory you created and its
contents if you like following the installation.
To install Internet Explorer for Windows 3.1, 3.11, or Windows for
Workgroups 3.1 & 3.11:
1. Create a temporary directory on your hard disk.
2. Either copy the file "msie16.exe" from the "explorer" subdirectory
on the CD to your temporary directory and double-click on it from
File Manager, or at a DOS prompt execute that file while cd'd to the
temporary directory.
3. In File Manager, double-click Setup.exe. See Readme.txt for details
on what Setup.exe installs.
4. You can delete the temporary directory you created and its contents
if you want.
