The use of "HTML Help" of the new help system breaks compatibility with Windows 95. The Software won't start on this OS, reporting a missing DLL with a message box. It's not a real issue for Windows users as noone seems to use this ancient OS. That being said, it would be an issue with Mac's users using this software on a virtual machine running Windows 95. For those in that scenario, the problem gets solved by installing HTML Help from Microsoft, also, Internet Explorer since version 4 includes the "HTML Help" files, required for this help system to work. The version 4.11 will still be available as download for this reason.
