    Hi Joe,

    PXW could not be installed directly on a 64 bit OS so the new version was released with an installer for any windows OS. Before you had to install version 2 then do patches to version 3.

    Now you can do an install direct from the new version. As far as I know there were no other changes or updates. The help files are still in the old windows help format.

    There are some PXW help files on www.winsnet.info if you need them.

    I have my disks now, and I'm slowly working on things. Though I have been on fidonet for years I currently do now have an up to date nodelist. Moreover I'll need a new na file as well.

    Anyway, I'll look over the info paqck and I'll join your network.


    Thanx
