SYMPTOMS
========

The Desktop Pythonizer tool, a component of the Monty Python's Complete Waste of
Time software, may fail to change the desktop wallpaper.

Also, the additional sound events that this program provides may not be saved.

CAUSE
=====

The settings you choose in the program's interface are written to the System.ini
file, not the registry. Windows 95 looks in the registry for these settings.

RESOLUTION
==========

Please contact the program's manufacturer for information about possible
resolutions to this problem.

STATUS
======

This situation is most likely caused by design changes in Windows 95. Microsoft
has confirmed that it is not caused by a problem in Windows 95.
