This page has the best explanation of why there is confusion about where
to put the unicows.dll http://www.bang.ro/dll/unicows.dll.htm
unicows.dll download and information <snip long discussion> Important
note: the Windows System folder can be different depending on operating
system and the install path that was originally used when your Windows
Operating system has been installed. The defaults for this folder are:
<snip XP, NT, 2K> C:\Windows\System\ on Windows 9x and Windows ME

Ha! Most especially, I never snip any of my /own/ long discussions.

I have about 3 different modes. Frequently I paste the snippages without
any indication, or I put an ellipse ... if it helps to clarify something
is missing that I snipped, or in this unusual circumstance, initially I
was going to paste in the long discussion. Then I decided to not, and
when I snipped out that part of the discussion, I replaced the excision
with 'snip...' -- maybe to indicate that I considered not snipping it or
something.

> Have a happy holidays.

Thanks. I'm generally on holiday. This is just the cooler and wetter
holiday season,

So.... did you get the FF3 working on your W98?

No, I did put the files in the system directory but XP apps such as
FF3 still won't install. I didn't get back to you because I intended
trying things out on a different win 98SE machine I have first. In
case some "tweak" on this machine is stopping things working.

Thanks for the previous help. The checksums matched. :-)

Regards, John.
