Subj: [kl] Music CD Recorder- bad software for Win 98
Date: Thu, 17 Dec 1998 23:58:27 -0500

I know this is non-Clarinet topic, but if you have to reload your Win 98
system because of a bad piece of software, several days of practice time
will be "blown".
I bought a program called Music CD Recorder from Alphasoftware, and it
installs a file that destroys the wininet.dll file, as well as a couple of
other major Win98 files. Basically, I had to reload my system as the
control panel, and explorer would not work after installing the program.
I went to their web site (alphasoftware.com under cd recorder message
board), and they have had many of the same system crash-burn problems with
it. Just a warning to anyone with a CD writer, who wishes to get a
recording program, to stay clear of that one. It's like buying a virus!!!!!
I was up till 3:30 / 2 nights in a row reinstalling (during thanksgiving
break).
