I haven't been able to run uwin at work for a couple of years, because Symantec dislikes uwin on principle. As far as I can tell, anyway.
But the last few updates of Win 7 have rendered uwin pretty much unusable anyway. It's why I've switched to Windows PowerShell, to the extent that on my latest (home) W7 system I didn't even bother installing uwin. It makes me sad, but powershell with the right aliases is in fact quite usable. Only a few things in the shell itelf are irritatingly incompatible.
