  The above works outside Desqview.  Inside Desqview it loads, scans all
the areas and freezes at the scan window.  It looks like this;

 Msged v4.00 ³

  I can close the window using Desqview.  I think I've got a couple of
compilers (Borland and MS C++) lying around here somewhere, tho I can't
figure out why since I don't have a clue what to do with them.

  Exactly, every byte.
