I hope you enjoy it. You should find the following files in the ZIP package: empty ico - the Empty Recycle Bin icon full ico - the Full Recycle Bin icon burpme wav - the sound file for this icon install reg - used to install the program uninstal reg - used to remove BURP ME readme txt - this file ********************************************************* To install, first unzip all file into their own directory named "C:\BURPME" ********************************************************* * IMPORTANT NOTE: You MUST name the directory "BURPME" * * & place this directory in the root of your "C:" drive * * DO NOT place it in either C:\PROGRAM FILES\BURPME or * * C:\WINDOWS\BURPME. Doing this will cause your Recycle * * Bin icon to change to an ugly Windows default, change * * the name to WyattBurp and not play the program sound. * * In order for the supplied Install.Reg program to work * * properly you MUST use the directory "C:\BURPME" only * ********************************************************* INSTALLATION (AUTOMATIC): Once that is done, open your Exporer and double-click on the file INSTALL.REG Now, simply restart Windows 95. That's it! You're done. You should now see a new icon on your desktop for your Recycle Bin and it is now labeled "Trash Man." Empty the Recycle Bin to hear your new sound. INSTALLATION (MANUAL): Once the files are unzipped, right-click your mouse over your desktop and select "Properties". Select the Plus! tab. Now simply use the "Change Icon" button, and then the "Browse" button to locate the new icons. Once you have changed both the Empty and Full icons, click "Okay." Now open your Control Panel and select the Sounds icon. Scroll down until you find the "Empty Recycle Bin" item. Select it and then, using the pop-up explorer, find the new WAV file. Select it. Click on "Okay" and you're done! ********************************************************* REGISTRATION: Burp Me! is FREEWARE, I will not bombard you with annoying nag screens showering you with guilt for not registering, but I will make this offer to you: Simply send $5.00, (check or money order only, U.S. dollars only, - made out to Lee Francis), and send it to the address below and I will mail you my "Thank You Disk" (PC format only - obviously) which will include an accompanying BurpMe! animated Mouse Cursor and two more recycle bin icons with sounds, (including Wanda Burp).
