IKIOSK and Netscape Communicator 4.0

[Chris Olson]

Charles,
  I had the same problem until I discovered that Hyper Technologies
(creators of Ikiosk) have just developed a new version called WinSelect
3.31.  It is specially designed to work with the newer versions of IE or
Netscape.  I downloaded their demo and it works great.  I just purchased 6
licenses for our other workstations today.  See their web page at
www.hypertec.com
  Let me know if you have any questions.
