     O'Reilly Utilities -- Quick Solutions for Windows 98 Annoyances
                      Release Notes for version 1.2 
     ===============================================================


Changes in Service Release 1.2 (24-June-99)
------------------------------------------


(1) Fixed a bug in the Hide/Show Enhanced Taskbar solution.

(2) Determining the space available on hard disks larger than
    2GB was not reliable.  If the solution for recommending the
    optimal swap file size cannot accurately determine the amount
    of available space, it will consider that at least 2,048MB
    is free and recommend accordingly.

(3) Note that if you turn off the Enhanced Taskbar feature from the
    Disable Internet Explorer desktop integration (in the Solutions
    application), certain options in Windows Explorer's Folder Options
    dialog will no longer be available.  To change theses Folder Options,
    turn on the Enhanced Taskbar feature in Solutions and make the
    changes to Folder Options.  Then turn Enhanced Taskbar off again.

(4) When the Default Web Browser is changed in Web Browser Delegate, the
    icons for Internet Shortcuts may not change accordingly until the 
    next time Windows is started.

Changes in Service Release 1.1 (2-Dec-98)
------------------------------------------

(1) Fixed a bug that displayed an incorrect dialog box saying that Folder 
    Compare is not implemented.  Folder Compare works as expected.

(2) In Linkshare, added a Convert item to the bookmark/favorites context 
    menu to allow conversion between bookmarks and favorites using only
    the keyboard.  Highlight a bookmark or favorite and type Shift-F10
    (or right-click) to display the context menu.

(3) In Power Rename, added accelerator keys for all items. This change
    lets you use Power Rename with just the keyboard.

(4) In Web Browser Delegate, changed the Custom item in the Associated
    Application list so that it is dimmed when it is not an available 
    option for the selected Internet activity.

Notes on Web Browser Delegate:

 - If you install this service release over the demonstration software
 included in the book "Windows 98 Annoyances," Web Browser Delegate is
 installed.  To use the program, you must start it from Windows Explorer.
 Go to the folder in which you installed the Utilities (by default this
 is Program Files\Annoyances) and double-click the file named delegate.exe.
 You may add this program to your Start menu if desired (Start menu,
 Settings, Taskbar & Start Menu). Web Browser Delegate will remain 
 unavailable from the Solutions application.

 - If you choose Windows Default for certain Internet activities 
 (namely Default Web Browser and Default FTP Client) and click Apply, 
 the next time you start Web Browser Delegate the associated application
 will be Internet Explorer.  This is normal since Internet Explorer is 
 the default application for these activities in Windows 98.

 - Versions of Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer higher than 4.x 
 may contain differences that are incompatible with the Web Browser 
 Delegate. If you install a 5.x or higher release of your browser, check
 http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/utilwin98/ for any possible updates or 
 release notes.  Follow the Support link from this page.
