===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
Thank you for your interest in WinKillr!!
You will find this utility to be extremely helpful in controlling the
timed shutdown of your applications.
Please be sure to start WinKillr itself before attempting to use it with
other applications. This will assure the proper path is established in
the WINKILLR.INI file in your WINDOWS directory.
See the on-line help file for further details and suggestions for use.

===== Installation =====================================
Packing List:
FILE_ID.DIZ - Program description used by BBSs
README.TXT - This file
SETUPWK.EXE - WinKillr's installation program
VENDINFO.DIZ - Distribution information file - partially encoded
VENDOR.TXT - Information of interest to shareware distributors
and BBSs in ASCII format
The files below are in compressed format and will be expanded by
SETUPWK when it is run - they CANNOT be used directly:
HELPFILE.WR_ - The help documentation in Windows Write format
REGISTER.TX_ - Registration form in ASCII format called by
registration procedure
SHAREWAR.TX_ - Information on shareware in ASCII format
called by registration procedure
WINKIL11.EX_ - The executable program file
WINKIL11.HL_ - The help file supporting WinKillr
IMPORTANT: WinKillr is a Microsoft Visual Basic program and requires that
the file VBRUN300.DLL be in the /WINDOWS/SYSTEM directory (or elsewhere
on the path) of your computer. This file is widely available and hence,
because of its very large size, is not distributed with WinKillr as part
of the KILLR_11.ZIP or KILLR.ZIP archive. It is available on CompuServe
in the WinUtil Forum, Library 1 as VBRUN3.ZIP. It is also available from
virtually every other bulletin board and catalog operation in the world.
Do not proceed with the installation of WinKillr until you have verified
that this file is in your /WINDOWS/SYSTEM directory OR you are installing
from a disk received directly from Open Windows!!
To install WinKillr from a floppy disk received from Open Windows:
1. While in Windows, insert the floppy disk in the drive.
2. Open File Manager and select the floppy disk.
3. Double click on the file OWSETUP.EXE to run it.
4. Follow the on-screen directions.
To install WinKillr starting with only a copy of KILLR_11.ZIP
(KILLR.ZIP if obtained from CompuServe):
1. Create a temporary directory (C:\KILLTEMP will do) on your hard
drive.
2. Copy KILLR_11.ZIP to this directory.
3. Unzip the file using WinZip or other "UNZIPper". This should
produce the files listed in the packing list above.
4. Run SETUPWK.EXE from Windows. This will take you through the
procedure of installing WinKillr on your hard disk.
5. You may delete all of the files in the temporary directory from your
hard drive after completing the installation process, but remember to
save a copy of KILLR_11.ZIP on a floppy for friends who may wish to try
WinKillr.
===== Warranty =========================================
A registered user of any Open Windows program is entitled to a full
refund of their registration fee if they are not satisfied with the
program they have registered. Send a letter to Open Windows requesting a
refund (we'd like to hear why, but that's not a requirement) stating that
you will discontinue all use of the program upon receipt of your refund.
It's as simple as that - no questions asked.
===== License for Use and Distribution =================
VENDINFO USE AUTHORIZATION
The attached VENDINFO data record is hereby incorporated by reference.
Any distribution satisfying all the distribution requirements expressed
in that data record is hereby authorized
DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying
it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are
expected to register. Individual programs differ on details -- some
request registration while others require it, some specify a maximum
trial period. With registration, you get anything from the simple right
to continue using the software to an updated program with printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as
stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like
commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both
cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in
the method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right to
copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a
specific group. For example, some authors require written permission
before a commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should
find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's
commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs
easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is
low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee
-- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of WinKillr must accept this disclaimer of warranty: WinKillr is
supplied as is. The author disclaims all warranties, expressed or
implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of merchantability
and of fitness for any purpose. The author assumes no liability for
damages, direct or consequential, which may result from the use of
WinKillr.
WinKillr is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the
user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but please
give them the original KILLR_11.ZIP (or KILLR.ZIP if obtained originally
from CompuServe) file so that they will have all of the necessary support
files. The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal
computer users with quality software without high prices, and yet to
provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop new products.
If you find this program useful and continue to use WinKillr after
the 30-day trial period, you must make a registration payment of $14.95
to Open Windows. The $14.95 registration fee will license one copy for
use on any one computer at any one time. You must treat this software
just like a book. An example is that this software may be used by any
number of people and may be freely installed on multiple computers, so
long as there is no possibility of it being used at one location while
it's being used at another - just as a book cannot be read by two
different persons at the same time.
Commercial users of WinKillr must register and pay for their copies
of WinKillr within 30 days of first use or their license is
withdrawn. Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting Open
Windows.
Anyone distributing WinKillr for a fee of any kind must read the
conditions in the VENDOR.TXT file distributed with this application.
===== About VENDINFO Files =============================
Each VENDINFO.DIZ file contains extensive information about a product.
This "human-readable" section is followed by a compressed data record
useable by automated tools. The data record allows BBSes and other
distributors to automate package handling, and provides users with a
wealth of product information. VENDINFO tools (free viewer for users,
free or inexpensive processors for distributors, editors for authors)
are available from many sources, including the originators of VENDINFO:
