	Erm, how about the less destructive method of downloading
Microsoft Kernel Toys for Win95? I think this includes a program that
allows you to do this, as I've done this for all my DOS boxes. Curiously
the Windows key seems to generate a capital S keystroke now. BTW, the
Windows key is disabled by disabling the Ctrl+Esc key combination in the
properties page. I'm sorry I can't remember the name of the program.
