After some struggling to get the .vba file, it installed
nicely in my vimfiles/ directory.  It didn't work at all
until I removed the v98 distribution files:

    [c:\vim\vim70]zip -rm netrw98 . -i *netrw*

then it worked fine - but once Bram updates the "official"
plugin directory, I like to have modified versions in my
vimfiles so I can still apply patches to the release and
have my modifications take precedence.

I noticed that some files are always missing from the list.
For example, .exe .jpg .gif

Why is this and how do we override?

We have <enter> to browse a file in the same window, 'o' to
browse in a new horizontal window and 'v' to browse in a new
vertical window.  It would be nice to have 't' (not used) to
browse in a new tab.  'let g:netrw_browse_split = 3' has
some strange behavior - it affects both 'o' and 'v' for
example.

Also you have a local map Q (currently undocumented).  Some
of us already use Q to quit (nmap Q :q!<CR>).

Finally, I noticed that you only anticipate the use of
cmd.exe as a Windows shell.  Many of us not using training
wheels <g> (sh, bash, etc.) use 4nt.  Please replace

    if &shell =~ "cmd.exe$"
with
    if &shell =~ '\(cmd\)\|\(4nt\)\.exe$'
