[Dxbase] Internet Cluster Window Fix

Thu Feb 14 22:40:53 EST 2008

Mike,
Tnx for the info. I've never used telnet from IE6 or IE7 so didn't realize 
this feature was even there. I usually use VE7CC's CC User software for my 
telnet connections. At the web site you provided it also mentioned that 
telnet was missing from Vista as well. I applied both patches just in case 
I want to use telnet in the future. Thanks for saving me some heart burn 
when I would have found it didn't work!
73,
Gary AL9A
