The Widows' portion of the computer is definitely susceptible. The way VPC works is it creates an entire x86 computer in software. The DOS/Windows software does not know that it is running in an emulated environment and works exactly the same way it does normally. It is as susceptible as real hardware is, just running slower. -- -- Mr. PopMan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "Does anybody want to play a game of pinball?"
