        Writelog uses NetBIOS to network. WinXP added the capability to 
identify a computer
with a mixed case name (including embedded spaces). Win95 NetBIOS will not 
recognize lower case
names, and truncates at the first space.

The solution is to make sure all three computers have UPPERCASE names with no 
spaces.

I am having an issue with networking 3 computers with Writelog. Computer 1 is 
running XP Home Computer 2 is running Win 95 Computer 3 is running Win ME The 
computers are connected via a router. All 3 computers see one another under 
Windows. I can share files etc.
