SYMPTOMS
========

When you remove the Novell NetWare (Workstation Shell 4.0 and later [VLM])
network client, the Startnet.bat line is not removed from the Autoexec.bat file.

RESOLUTION
==========

Use any text editor (such as Notepad) to edit the Autoexec.bat file and disable
the "@call startnet.bat" line. To disable the line, type "rem" (without the
quotation marks) at the beginning of the line.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2) does place "rem" before each line within
the Startnet.bat file.
