Re: XY4 freezing in Win98

[Fritz Casey-Leininger fritzcl@xxxxxxxx]

This problem cropped up for me and at least one other person earlier this
fall. Both of us were running Win98 and McAfee Virus software. What
appeared to be a freeze up was a very long wait, several minutes sometimes
before Xy4 would come up. If McAfee Virus was not running the Xy4 load
happened quickly. Moreover, once Xy4 had been loaded once during a session
and then unloaded, if McAfee was reloaded, Xy4 could be started again
without delay.

Don't know if this is a problem with other virus software.
