IMPORTANT!!! MCOOKxxx.ZIP has been ZIPped with a registered version of PKZIP,
and has an Authenticity Verification built in. So when you un-ZIPped the
MCOOKxxx.ZIP file, you should have seen a -AV after each file name, like:

Inflating: MCOOK.EXE     -AV

and at the end of un-ZIPping these two lines:

Authentic files Verified:   # KEM280
NORSKI SOFTWARE

The -AV mean that the file pass a checksum that was generated when I ZIPped
up the file, and that it has NOT been changed since it left my PC.
If you see the last two lines, it also tell you that ALL the files are
exactly as they left my PC, and that the MCOOKxxx.ZIP has NOT been re-ZIPped
or tampered with. Only NORSKi Software has the been assigned the ID# KEM280
from PKWARE, and this number can NOT be falsified. 

If one of the files do NOT pass the -AV verification, or the last two lines
are missing or different, SOMEONE HAS CHANGED OR RE-ZIPPED MCOOKxxx.ZIP, and
COULD have changed some of the files. You should then practice Safe Computing
and run a virus checking program, just to be on the safe side.
If you downloaded the MCOOKxxx.ZIP file from a BBS, the Sysop there might
have added some advertising for his/her BBS as a part of the ZIP file. Some
shareware distributors also like to add their own installation programs too.
In those cases, there's probably nothing else added, but be safe and do a
virus check. 

Happy Computing!
