With respect to the comments on viruses and ProSel, note that the author, 
Glen Bredon, uploads updates to ProSel to GEnie and CompuServe on a reg-
ular basis.  However, these uploads are intended for registered owners
only and are encrypted.  If you try to run one of these programs without
decrypting them, very strange things may happen!  This is not a virus,
but rather a legitimate method of providing updates to proprietary
software on a rapid basis.  The best solution is to become a legitimate
owner of ProSel and learn how to decrypt the files that Mr. Bredon has 
kindly provided.
