Do you know if there is any mailing list accessible by BITNET about CD
ROM? I am interested in getting news about this media and availability
of data at the actual moment. Thanks

Subject: Email Splitter
On uucp I regularly notice large message being split into various
sections, each starting with a :
Part x of y, cut here --------
type line.
I am in need of such a program to run on a MS-DOS platform. Any
suggestions?
Thank you,

Subject: Hard disk Partition table?
SCAN found some virus_infected files in my hard disk, and reported it
as 1591,1575 virus.
My HD is 80M and devided into 3 driver(C:,D:,E:) I re-formatted C:
driver with write-protected floppy DOS, and new system files(.SYS &
COMMAND.COM) are ok. I deleted all infected files on D:,E:.
But when I boot up from my HD, DOS reports only 638K. I think boot
sector still contains viruses.
If so, can I replace the boot sector, with no changing in D:,E: disk?
Another...where can I get disk partition data?

Subject: Print Spooler and Novell Netware 386
I need some help looking for a print spooler to run with Novell Netware
386. We're looking for a print server program that will do the
following: Have limits on the length of print jobs that can be sent
through. Limit either the time between users sending print jobs or
limit the number of simultanious print jobs one user can have in the
queue at one time. It would be nice iif it ran in background. Too
much to ask? Probably.
The problem is we run several computer labs on campus and have users
sending fifty page documents through the print server 8 or 9 times.
This clogs the pri nt server and prevents others from printing. We'd
appreciate any suggestions o n how to solve the problem.

Subject: Info about 80486 wanted
I am writing a brief history about the Intel chips for a brazilian
magazine, but I did't find all necessary information. I need some
information about 80486 chip to complete my chart.
1) Number and size of internal registers
2) Maximum size of REAL and VIRTUAL memory.
3) BUS size.
4) The year that it was shipped. (I think was in 1990)
5) Clock speed.
Thanks in advance.

Subject: NNANSI.SYS
Hello,
I have seen your note in INFO-PC about new version of NNANSI.
The comment I would make is that You should make it also in .com
version so people that use Desqview (like me!) could load it as TSR in
windows under DV.
The reason I am not using NNANSI.SYS now ( I liked it vey much!) is
that I have to de-install ANSI when entering DV and re-install it in
every window...
So, keep us in mind!
I wish You best luck. Viktor.

I am looking for information on the SoundBlaster and Adlib sound cards

Subject: Archive utility for big blue
Is there a version of ARC/LHARC/PACK/ZIP/ZOO and/or UUENCODE/UUDECODE
that will run on an IBM mainframe? I'm mainly interested in unpacking
documentation for software so that it could be printed on a laser
printer without having to unpack it on the pc and then upload it to the
mainframe for printing. For my own use it would be nice if it ran
under XA though I can run an HPO version too. The best would be if it
were written in REXX.
Thanks.
