  21.     My brother and I, and many other people who respnded to my post
  22. for help with NDW 2.0 when I crashed, had a problem in which windows called it
  23. a 'general protection error' caused by NDW.  The problem was fixed by deleting
  24. some config files that NDW uses. (and creates).  Someone correct me if I'm
  25. wrong, but the patch protects from these corrupt data/config. files.  
  26. When you get one of these you can't call up windows until you change 
  27. Shell back to progman.exe.
