I have downloaded both and they work great. I am still puzzled on the Win95
Plus contention though. I have the basic Windows95, and the animated cursor
worked fine. There was also an animated hourglass program in my cursors
directory which I also tried out for the hell of it (and it had to
originate from Win95).
Perhaps the cursor problem lies in the computer system rather than Win95.
Since I do some programming and have Visual Basic on my computer for windows
programing, I have lots of obcsure windows tools and the problem some people
are experiencing may be due to a missing file of a vbx or dll variety.
For those of you with Win95, I can try to see why it doesn't work for you.
Just let me know. It may be a week or two however.
Many of you will be heading for Indy next week. But for me, it was a close
call between the 1000+ mile trip in my rusty 71 BGT or a week backpacking in
the heart of the Beartooth Mountains some sixty miles away. So while you
guys are drinking ale in the hot, muggy Indianapolis sun, I will be trudging
through snow and ice (and loving every minute of it).
