----------------------------------------
WARNING:
You need COMCTL32.DLL version 4.70 ( or greater), as shipper with
Internet Explorer >= 3.0 or for example Office 97.
I do not really know the reason, but I got several reports of malfunction,
that where only reproducable using the older version of this DLL.
----------------------------------------
INSTALLATION:
.) unzip to temporary directory
.) run SETUP.EXE
.) delete temporary files
LIMITATIONS / REMARKS
.) no known limitation
PLEASE NOTE:
===========
If you have both Windows 95 and Windows NT installed on your machine
( or several versions of the same operating system), please be aware of the fact,
that the represented result are always from the view of the system active when
the information database was created.
So do not delete any DLL that seems not to be used if you are not absolutely certain,
of what consequences this might imply!
Always make backup copies of these files you are going to delete !
Be aware of the fact, that many DLLs in the system directory are loaded on demand !
This kind of dependency is not detectable by any tool, simply on watching the files
on disk !
Displaydriver / Scanner and communication drivers are a good example for such DLLs.
