Thanks anyway, Ken!

This is for seeing if the software has moved to another computer. I 
can use a file if nothing else, but just checking if there's anything 
cleaner and more reliable.

With all the worm flurry right now, I expect lots more people to have 
virus protection, and disabling a feature on their computer is a 
pretty major job for many end users--if they had to do that before 
using the software, or if they opened it right up and got a crash, 
then I wouldn't expect to sell much to people that have NAV.

So, it seems to me that shell() is not a good bet for shareware!
