Versions 9.nn work only on 386+ machines.  And you don't want the latest
release-8 version (8.53) either because . . .

I think a good version to try is 8.45 (or thereabouts).  You can turn off
the crippling Super-Check-Partial behavior by using <F9> or <F10> to cover
up the <F8> window.

Good luck and 73.  --John/K2MM
