My problem with EZirc turned out to be a bug in the install.cmd program
according to Steven. He sent me a script (I assume, I haven't looked at
it) which he says will install the object I need.

I haven't tried Mozilla since I hit the help button and got a full screen
that I could get rid of only by rebooting. I have since dug through Warp
Unleashed to find the keystrokes to resize a screen and am going to try it
again. When I do, I will look for the internet chat feature. Thanks for
the tip.

I discovered the necessity of not using ZTBold to unzip v. 1.94a. It
would not replace the ztb.exe file. So I shut ztb down and unzipped it
via the command line; that replaced the exe file. But thanks for the tip
anyway.
