The version I have is 4.03 it's a suite of connection things. Additional to what I've written before, I've been getting some PDF files recently that won't open in the !PDF of RISC OS, so I added an entry to the Unilaunch Filetypes list for PDF and now double clicking a PDF on the RISCOS Emu side, launches the file to Foxit PDF reader on Windows. Same for Excel and Word files that might and do arrive in Pluto as attachments, double click 'em and they are launched in Windows (Obviously you have to have something on the Win side to pick up the request). ;-) And FWIW the writer of said software is still around (Alan Wrigley) and tweaking as required.
