I used a MS Office version on the 486 Win3.1 pc and I looked at a file I
had written using Word using either the MS-DOS 5.0 DOSSHELL or LIST.COM
or maybe something else, and was suprised to see that several version of
what I had written were kept in the file above the final edit that I made
to it.

A few years back iirc I learned someone Emailed a .doc file and the
Receipient looked into it and read some of the things in the file that
had been edited out of the .doc file they received and learned something
they wasn't suppose to know about.
I 'think' the Sender of the Email got in BIG trouble over the incident.

I looked, it is on the Right Side but a bit up from the bottom of the window.

GOOD!

Maybe AdAware still offers downloads to their older versions.
I have it on Firefox but don't refer to it, I'm always clicking on the
NoScript icon next to it when I go to a unfamiliar website, but I haven't
seen any Advertisements, so I guess it's doing its job.
