From: "Glenn Meadows" 

I use it all the time.  Allows you to change/define default printers,
different shares for each different location, even will re-config Netscape
and OE email settings as well.  Very flexible, and solid as a rock.  I've
used it for 4+ years now.  Well worth the few bucks to register it.
