- ==================
- Using NSS In Win95
- ==================
-
- The easiest way to use NSS under Windows 95 is to set up a shortcut
- for NSS. Make sure that the files SECRET.EXE, SECRET.HLP, README.TXT,
- and LICENSE.TXT are copied to the same directory. Right-click on the
- desktop and choose NEW/SHORTCUT. Use the Browse button to select
- SECRET.EXE. Name the shortcut Norton Secret Stuff.
-
- Compatibility Issues
- =====================
-
- Long filenames (LFNs) are maintained if the NSS archive is expanded
- on Windows 95 systems. LFNs are converted to DOS (8.3) format if the
- archive is expanded on DOS, Windows 3.x, or Windows NT systems.
-
- On certain machines, NSS may be slow returning from the "Select a File
- to Encrypt" dialog if you add a large number of files. The mouse cursor
- will not change to an hourglass during this process.
-
- Due to differences in the way extended ASCII characters are handled by
- Win95, Win NT, Win 3.x, and DOS, it is possible to create an NSS archive
- with a name that decrypts on Win95 or Win NT systems but not on Win 3.x
- or DOS systems. To correct this, you can use a Win95 or Win NT system
- to decrypt the file or you can rename it using characters that are valid
- under DOS and Win 3.x.
