Is version 4.0.8 a Dos version? The Dos version that I have is 4.0 I think. If
you are using Windows 3.1 you can get what I think is described as a 32 bit
extender (I might be wrong about what that is called) that will allow the use of
that 4.15 version in win 3.1, I've used it in Windows for Workgroups (3.11) and
it works great there. But that is talked about somewhere in the text files.
