... I wrote a program to use at the institute and all of the machines are running 95. There are five of them. There are running software you cannot buy anymore. It seems that the inclusion of sockets in EUPHORIA keeps it from working on these machines. Others have had better success. That doesn't mean we should just kill it.
static linking ws_32 for a win95 build should solve that. vanilla win95 had internet explorer 3. win95osr2 may have had ws_32. I think installing internet explorer 4 or 5 includes the DCOM lib as part of the install which would also solve the problem. I don't think win98SE and later will have a problem. that is on builds before ticket598 fix which also includes a link to cmdlg32 which isn't really needed for win9x anyway because the manifest is ignored.
