- Our DOS extender had a problem that caused Executor under DOS or
- Windows to be unstable under some circumstances. This was first fixed
- (if I remember correctly) in 1.99p5.

- I'd suggest picking up and trying 1.99p6, which is our latest
- "Bleeding Edge" version, but which is still much more stable than
- 1.99p. We're working on getting 1.99p7 then 1.99q out before we
- officially start releasing beta versions, so technically what you've
- run in the past is pre-Beta.
-
- We will continue to make demo versions available exactly so people can
- test Executor on their own machines before buying the non-demo
- versions, since once Executor 2 is finalized, if the demo version
- crashes on your machine, the non-demo version will too, but tracking
- down those mystery crashes from before is one of the reasons Executor
- 2 hasn't gone beta yet -- we're getting close, though.
