John: TSR's have always been notorious for screwing up the works, particularly for long running CPU hogs. Since under Windows 3.1, all applications shared the same memory, any glitch in one could cause havoc in all the rest. There are occasions when the task switching mechanism would get confused, so the TSR's would get access to other applications' data and/or code. Very ungood.

Win95's philosophy of executing each application in a separate address space corrected the majority of those situations. (I won't even mention that OS/2 solved the problem in their earliest releases by the task segmentation concept.)

Good luck with WRQ.
