>>>Hi Cetin

>>>I'm tryng to run the development environment so the executable is fox.exe or foxprox.exe. I'm straining my memory here ! I have run this under Win98 SE and it was ok. I've set the compatibility mode to Win95 but that doesn't help.

>>Oh the dev environment itself! Directly use foxprox.exe or add +x switch to fox.exe (I prefer foxprox.exe)
>>PS: No need to set comp. mode.
