Dear Sirs,
I have a problem running NE.exe (111066 bytes
with pull-down menus, by S.Reifel & Co) on
my desktop, a Pentium III at 550 Mhz.
This problem doesn't exist on my laptop
which is a Pentium II at 400 Mhz.
Can anyone please help me ?
Thank you in advance...
Best regards from Athens Greece

I have not heard of any problems with NE running on 500Mhz+ processors, though I suppose you may of hit a limitation in the program as it has been around for quite a long time. You didn't mention if you were getting a runtime error 200; if you are you can get the fix here
You can find the most recent version of NE (1995) Here
You could go with a modern editor like PEDIT or choose one of the many others from this page.
Note: all software linked to above is freeware.

Thank you for your advises...
It seems that the suggested NE is not
the one I am referring to, however,
I downloaded the other programs for
error handling of fast machines,
and will give them a try.
I'll keep you posted of the results.
Thanks again.
Akk the best...

Thank you for the advise...
I downloaded SLOWDOWN.COM, then used
option /M:50 (slow the PC down to 50 mhz)
and now NE.exe is working like a breeze!
However, an attempt to make it run with
a parameter of /M:100 failed, but /M:50
works just fine.
Thanks again from a Happy programmer
who's "still" using the same editor!

Hi Doofus,
You gave some links for NE.exe, PEdit.exe and others but they seem to be dead links. Where could I get the Norton Editor?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Doofus,

Thanks in advance!

In reference to the NE.exe and Hopper, although there is a valid windows NE.exe, there is also a Back door program that loads itself and sends out popup dialog boxes. Run a find on NE.exe and if there is one in the directory called Network Essentials, then delete that entire directory - there is a dll and several other files with it. (It pretends to be a system file so it may be hidden).
FYI,
Greg
