Golden Bow's VOPT program is among the fastest disk optimizers 
available for the MS/PC-DOS environment. It doesn't allow you to 
specify locations etc as DOG, but it's lightning fast. I do not 
trust much software that fiddles with my disk (on a rawer 
level), so I had to try VOPT, I made a backup and executed VOPT 
and every time after it had been running for about 10 seconds, 
I'd shut off the machine and then back on again.. I repeated 
this about 10-15 times and I didn't have any problems reading 
any of the files on my disk (PRI45MB)..

              regards,
                  joaquim
