I bought a Compaq Presario a while back...later I found that Compaq had
a Shell program running Microsoft's Explorer shell. An unecessary
redundacy, yes, but it has also sacrifices some of the performance
ability of the machine by making one program to run another. If anyone
else is having this problem, please E-Mail me:
