INSTALLING FILE MONSTER
File Monster requires Visual Basic's VBRUN300.DLL to run. You can download this file from many popular Bulletin Boards that host Windows Shareware. You can find VBRUN300.DLL on Compuserve as well

File Monster comes in an self-extracting archive. Simply double-click on the FILMON.EXE file and it will automatically decompress the archive. Once decompressed you can install the files as follows:

1. Copy and, or move the DISKSTAT.DLL file into the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM sub-directory.
2. Copy and, or move the FILEMON.EXE file into the \WINDOWS sub-directory or to a location of your choosing.

That's it! You can choose to start FILE Monster every time you start Microsoft Windows simply by adding its Icon to the Startup.grp group file in Program Manager.


		  Definition of Shareware

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are required to register it (or purchase the licensed version as in the case of File Monster).

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and retail software, and the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like retailauthors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method ofdistribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example, some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's retail or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is lower, prices are lower also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.
