- Glenn is right if and only if you have the Norton Desktop...and even if you do
- there is a workaround to get this going (install the program manager by
- modifying the SYSTEM.INI, install the build 50 drivers, put back the Norton
- Desktop in the SYSTEM.INI).
-
- I've had no problems running multiple applications with the build 50 drivers.
