WinVNC and Suspend Mode

[Per Nygaard]

Say please :-)

Look her:

"SUMMARY
This article describes the availability of Windows Sockets 2.0 for Windows
95. "

If you are looking inside the pathch (W95ws2setup.exe) with an unzip tool,
and you can find ndis.vxd. (date: 3-20-1998). I belive this must be the
right patch for you, but don't hang me if I'm wrong.
