What do you mean by "minor game?" Do you just seek games small in size or are you looking for games for children? Here is the games page at NTWare: http://home.ntware.com/games/ ~~ Jumbo.com has a hugh repository of games. I'll take your to their WindowsNT games page: http://www.jumbo.com/games/windowsnt/games/ ~~ TuCows now has a separate games site. You might check there at the Chinese mirror: http://chinese.games.tucows.com/index.html Just click the word "downloads" next to the PC catagory. Alan [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [SaF] Program Needed
Uh Jahmehr, you already have the program - The MS-DOS prompt. *) Open up a DOS window *) Type "cd \directoryname" - if the name of the directory has a space in it, you have to enclose the directory name in quotes, eg, cd \"Program Files" Note that if you have the option "DOS prompt here" in your right-click menu, then you can navigate to that dir in the Windows Explorer, and use that to get a DOS window in that dir instead of doing the above. *) Type "attrib -r *" And done. If you have files in other dirs that need this done, just go back to step two and repeat. When you're done, type "exit" and press enter to quit the DOS window. -=Brian=- On May 15, K.

Re: [SaF] Program Needed
I "KNEW" I should have paid attention 15 years ago when they offered that Elective DOS class to all 9th graders in 1984! (If it isn't an icon-based system, I'm really in trouble now) :o) - Original Message - From: Brian L.

[SaF] Snow White
Hello to all seekers and finders... I just got a copy of the "Snow White" worm (w95.hybris.gen) immediately after posting my message about the MS-DOS prompt, so if any of you uses cybertrails.com as your ISP, please check your system for infection or have it checked. Information on this worm can be found at: http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/pf/w95.hybris.gen.html -=Brian=-
Re: [SaF] Program Needed
Hi Folks! Another trick to do recursive attribute changes is by simply using the DOS command "Attrib". The /s switch will perform the change throughout a directory tree. Cheers, Leo. "K.
