Patch Installation Instructions: This patch is for Windows 95 only. Win95''s winsock2 implementation is not consistent with the Win98 and WinNT implementations. This patch changes SNC 3.2 to work correctly with the Win95 winsock2 implementation. This patch is packaged as a self-extracting compressed file (11036001.exe). It must be installed from Windows 95. The setup program backs up the original file(s). It then installs the new file(s) and a patch uninstall utility. To install, download 11036001.exe to a temporary directory on the PC. In Windows 95, select "Run" from the "Start" menu. Enter the path and patch filename (Example: c:\temp\11036001.exe) then select "OK". The patch will uncompress and start the setup program automatically. Follow the setup program prompts to complete the patch installation. Restart Windows. Patch Removal Instructions: In Windows 95, click "Start". Then select "Programs", "Patch 110360-01" and click on "uninstallSHIELD". WARNING - The patch uninstall program restarts Windows 95 at the end of the uninstall process. Installation Notes: All drive letter and directory name references are Solstice Network Client defaults.
