Actually, I'd be fore deleting it from CompuServe. I finally got the thing Starting over…. Actually, it should be deleted from this section. Or is it part of CompuServe's way to pump up their revenues? A real waste of $$$. Very bogus. I agree totally with Bryan. Sysops: Please nix…

I would like to find out if there have been any solutions for the problem of copy-protecting Windows *.exe files from theft in the Novell NetWare 386 environment. Due to the way in which Novell alters the file structure during the change to an EXECUTE ONLY file, it is impossible…
