I borrowed a copy of PCTOOLS, installed it on a RAM disk and tried it out. 
I didn't like it at all. ANd I certainly didn't have enough room to put it
on my hard disk. Norton 3.0 and 4dos are a far better (from space/utility)
although I admit PCTOOLS does have a few things I like, but not to spend all
that and have the disk space used up.
