Plus! For Windows 95 Build 104 Release Notes
====================================================

IMPORTANT ISSUES:
=================
Plus! requires a 486 or higher processor, 8MB of memory, and a display
that's capable of displaying at least 256 colors.  A high-color (16-bit)
display and sound card are recommended.

The DriveSpace 3 compression driver requires approximately 113k of 
conventional memory.  This will not affect the memory available to 
MS-DOS applications running under Windows 95, but may affect programs 
that run in MS-DOS (real) mode.  If you are using DoubleSpace or 
DriveSpace, or if you intend to use DriveSpace 3, and you need to run 
memory intensive programs in MS-DOS mode, you should:
 - Try increasing conventional memory by using EMM386 noems, and by 
   including the following line in your CONFIG.SYS file:

   DEVICEHIGH=C:\<Win95dir>\COMMAND\DRVSPACE.SYS /MOVE

   (Note:  If DRVSPACE.SYS is already being loaded, but is using the 
   /L:0 switch, try removing /L:0 if you're certain that your Upper 
   Memory Blocks are configured properly.)

 - If you do the above, and still don't have enough memory in MS-DOS 
   mode, boot without loading the real-mode compression driver (press 
   F8 when you see "Starting Windows...", select the Interactive 
   option, and answer N when asked whether you wish to load the 
   DriveSpace (or DoubleSpace) driver, and then install the MS-DOS 
   mode program to an uncompressed drive.

   (Note:  You will not have access to any of your compressed drives 
   until you reboot normally.)

If you do not want your existing compression driver updated to 
DriveSpace 3, use custom mode and uncheck the DriveSpace 3 option.

Do not install Plus! if you are using Win 3.1 file system compatibility mode.

Do not install Plus! compression if you are using third party disk 
compression software.  Run Setup in Custom mode and uncheck the 
DriveSpace 3 option.

If you are installing to a compressed drive and you receive a "Not
enough disk space to install..." message during Setup, do not choose
the install anyway option. It may leave your system unstable.

When selecting a Desktop Theme, be sure to choose a "high-color" theme
only if your system is currenly configured for high-color display.  
These themes will not display correctly on 256 color systems.

After installing Plus!, be sure to update your Windows 95 Startup
disk with the Plus! versions of DRVSPACE.BIN and SCANDISK.EXE by
copying these files from your Win95\command folder to your Startup 
disk.

Uninstall and maintenance mode Setup (adding/removing components) are 
NOT supported yet.

OTHER NOTES:
============
The Desktop Themes program can be found in the Control Panel.

Online Help for Plus! is available by clicking the "Microsoft Plus! 
for Windows 95" book at the bottom of the Windows Help contents screen. 

Pinball default flipper keys are 'Z' and '/'.

It's OK to upgrade to a later version of Win95 after installing Plus!, 
even if you're using DriveSpace 3 compression.  Also, please note that 
if you do a CLEAN install of the new build of Win95, you'll also need 
to reinstall Plus!.

KNOWN PROBLEMS:
===============
Compression/Disk Tools
- When upgrading a drive, DriveSpace may report that there's not enough 
  free space and tell you that you need to free up more space on either 
  that drive or its host.  But the amount of space DriveSpace says you 
  need may be inaccurate.  You may have to free up additional space in 
  order for upgrade to proceed.

Themes
======
- Some of the Desktop Themes are incomplete.  They may be lacking
  content or use incorrect files.  Only the Nature, Science and Moderne
  themes include screen savers currently.

Misc
====
- None at this time

Internet Setup Wizard
=====================
- If you do not have Microsoft Exchange installed on your system
  and you install it when you run the Internet Setup Wizard, you
  should restart Windows after the Wizard completes, even if you
  are not otherwise prompted to restart Windows by the system.

  If you are running the Wizard as part of Plus! setup, wait for
  Plus! setup to complete before manually restarting the system.


Internet Control Panel
======================
- The AutoDial property sheet contains settings to enable automatically
  disconnecting a Dial-Up Networking connection after a period of
  inactivity.  This feature is not yet functional - you must manually
  disconnect your Dial-Up Networking connection after you finish using
  it.

Internet Explorer
=================
- Sometimes a page is loaded from the cache when it should be
  retrieved from a server - this happens mostly with pages which change
  content frequently.  We are tuning the code which determines whether
  cached pages are stale.  If you suspect you are getting stale 
  information from the local cache, select "View/Refresh" to force a 
  reload from the server.

- Shortcuts to Gopher server URLs are not automatically remembered
  in the History folder.  You can remember Gopher server pages as
  shortcuts and keep them in your Favorites folder.

- Links to telnet and mail from within Internet Explorer are
  not yet supported.

- Compuserve's Internet PPP Dialer application does not work with
  Internet Explorer.

- If you are running Microsoft Network client software on an internal
  TCP/IP-only network, you may experience lengthy timeouts on client
  operations (such as 'net use') if you are connected to the Internet
  via a dial-out connection when you attempt Microsoft Network client
  operations.  This is because server name resolution attempts are
  routed to the dial-out connection's DNS server first, and the name
  resolution may take some time to fail.

  Note that this problem occurs only while the Dial-Up Networking
  connection is make; once you hang up you will experience normal
  operations.

  To work around this problem, you should consider installing an
  additional network protocol on your internal network.

- To configure Internet Explorer to use a proxy server, you must
  edit the Windows '95 registry using the 'regedit' program.

For example:

You wish to configure Internet Explorer to use port 85 on server
http://proxy.mydom.com for proxy requests.  You do not want
URLs within mydom.com to be satisfied by the proxy.

Set the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet 
Explorer\Services\Proxy_Server to have the string value 
"http://proxy.mydom.com:85" (no quotes).

and set the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet 
Explorer\Services\No_Proxy to have the string value "mydom.com" 
(no quotes).


  User interface to allow configuration of these settings without
  using the registry editor will be supplied in a later release.
