Think you're right, John, that 'the smaller files are for w95/98 OS and can't be used on NT.'
'QP net downloader [vs the rest of qp2] has a problem with NT' because it is the only part written in VC++ [and NT seems unhappy with the v 6.0 libs to which Gary unfortunately switched].
We still don't know which MS files were installed by the 8-28 qp2.exe and, based on an earlier experience, probably never will :-(

The experience was that I asked for [and a QP programmer agreed to send me] the list of files that qp2 installs, because I suspected that the very annoying Object Windows Exception I was experiencing might be due to one or more win'95 files sneaking into their NT install.
The programmer kept telling me that qp_support was about to send the list, but someone squelched it; the eventual response from support was that they had run one paste test [testing has never been their forte IMHO] which 'proved the OWEs were caused at my end'.

That, of course, proved not to be the case -- other NTers subsequently reported the OWE problem.
