Yes, I believe that's the one that I was talking about. I had it before.. 
the file had text files written in two or more languages, saying the same 
thing, and didn't come with any manual of any sort...

Excecutor is a great program! I found it less than a month ago.. I 
haven't seen anything like it.

One problem I have.. I downloaded UNIVBE51.ZIP from ftp.ardi.com in the 
Executor/DOS directory... I have a WD90C31 Accelerated 1MB SVGA Card.. I 
used it so I could try to get Vesa 2.0 support, but when I loaded 
Executor, I was greeted with a blank screen, and Executor just accessed 
my hard disk and searched for a disk in drive A:. Then it didn't do 
anything, although it seemed there was something in the background, 
because I would still get beeps if I clicked around.. Vesa 1.2/1.1 works 
fine, though.
