Instructions: Unzip the patcher (xxxxxx-c.exe)* into the directory
where you installed the program. Then just double click
on this file. You will see a DOS window pop up and some
text appear in the window. The window will then automat-
ically close. In the program directory where you ran the
patch, you should see that file date of the (now)patched
program has changed to the current date. Also, a new file
will be created in that directory. This is an unpatched
copy of the file that was patched, and will have the same
root filename but the extension will be either .OLD or .BAK
When you're done, you may delete the patch file (xxxxxx-c.exe)
(*) xxxxxx-c.exe refers to the patch filename e.g. adun11-c.exe
xxxxxx-c.exe
What the patch does: Patches the program executable. Patching is process
that involves changing the value of some of the program
bytes in a way that "neutralizes" or bypasses the
program's protection.
Why is this patcher larger (~45 Kb) than others I've used?
The patch was created using a program called MDiff. The way
this program is coded, it produces patches that are a minimum
of around 43 Kb.
Notes: I couldn't really test the patched program very well since it kept
hanging after dialup. It did this even in the non-patched state.
It's most probably my system at fault since I've had some ongoing
problems with DUN in general. Let me know if you have problems
with the patch, or if you have problems with the program after you
patch it.
Patched using MDiff for Windows patcher. Thanks PC;-)

AutoDUN is a Windows 95 program that helps to automate the use of the Dial-Up Networking Adapter that comes with Windows 95. AutoDUN can control up to four of your dial-up connections. A user choice can be made at start-up or by command line switch control from shortcuts. AutoDUN can be used with or without dial-up scripters. It is designed to open and close the RoboDUN scripter which is widely available on the Internet. It has also been tested with the Microsoft Scripting Tool. When run, AutoDUN will automatically open RoboDUN (if installed), your chosen dial-up connection and Netscape and Microsoft Internet Explorer. It can open up to 3 additional user definable programs automatically. AutoDUN has also been designed to operate with MSN, it will open and close the MSN Program Viewer if this is installed.
