Michael knows what I mean ... I have bugged him often enough :)
(I mean serious icons=yes than everything is not carved, but only the
arachne logo remains ... Michael stated that he has lost the original
uncarved logo ...)

Everything is relative ... it's OK for me.
9.5 KB of low mem. is IMHO OK.

It has optional disk compression. (like drdos)
It works with it as well as without it.
There is no kind of 'havoc' (whatever that means :)

Would you tell me about what you are talking ???
I haven't noticed any problems neither in 6.22 nor in 7.00
(and there is surely not such big problem that a patch is needed, except
maybe himem.sys problem with win95 osr2 (which was shortly superceeded by
osr2.1, wich doesn't have this problem)

Believe me that everything I tried worked, and I have tried MANY things :)
