Jooel,

You are correct about the shell upgrade. The JSI tip below says you must install ie4.01 sp2 before installing ie5.5 inorder to fully upgrade the Win95 shell. The same tip seems to imply a catch-22 for skillz - he can't go back to ie4 once he installed ie5.

PS: Just a thought that has bugged me for years. I know that the manual seems to very clearly say you can access the UserID without kxrpc but how is it doing this? If you do not have local passwords or logon IDs cached (normal procedure in a network) then how is it getting the UserID since the current user hive in the registry never exists on a Win95 client until logon fully completes. I always assumed it must be getting it from the network redirector which means kxrpc?
