Hi all,

I hope some nice guru can help me.

I have written a Win32 app that needs to be launched from a link in a
browser. I have gotten it to sort-of work but I'm still having trouble.

Is there a step-by-step guide anywhere with instructions on how to do this?
Specifically, how to install the application, and how to serve the content
so that the application automatically starts when the user clicks a browser
link?

Kindly reply by repost.

Thanks in advance,
Barry

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
