 Thanks very much for the information, I will try it - I particularly
 want to be able to use it for checking floppies that have been exposed
 to other peoples systems.  I will see if I can find the Win(95) version,
 haven't been able to find it on the BB's I've looked at so far.
 KW> maybe you should get a version specific to win95 then...
 Yes, I will try to find one.  Again, many thanks for your kindness.
