For those that asked, here is a list of traps patched by DiskExpress II (plus a few other tidbits). There may be a new version comming out soon (the latest that I have is 2.03). 3rd parth rumor has it that AlSoft is not answering their phone these days BUT THIS IS JUST A RUMOR (probably just a problem with the phone equipment?) --------------- -- Begin INIT activity report.

The rumor that Alsoft is not answering its phone is not true; they answered their phone on Friday, when I cancelled my upgrade order... [I had problems with DiskExpress 1.5 and its compatibility with on of the hard partitions on my large hard disk, and don't need something that is more flaky than that at this point in time] -- Frank Malczewski (malczews@nunki.usc.edu) (fdm@wlv.imsd.contel.com)
