Appendix D

Internet Resources for the Win95 Webmaster

This appendix consists of dozens of Internet locations that we have found useful. These resources, organized by the following categories, can help you too.


Remember that most Windows 95 software is usually compatible with Windows NT. Because NT came along two years before Windows 95, many technical areas on the Internet devoted to 32-bit Windows will be valuable resources for software and troubleshooting questions on both platforms.

The number of Windows resources available on the Internet grows every day, so this list is by no means complete. If you have a question about running a Web server, however, you will almost certainly be able to find something in here that will lead you to the answer.

For those who don't want to type in all these URLs, we have included on the CD a bookmark.htm file for use with Netscape. You will find the file in the \supp directory.
