=================================================================================

The Terms and Conditions above govern the use of the enclosed programs.

The information below is provided for instructional purposes only.

=================================================================================

The enclosed executable should run on any 80X86-based Windows NT Web server.

You may need to modify it to run on other platforms.

The executable and HTML scripts will allow you to create a hyperlink that when clicked, logs the user into the ERC and/or Specs & Standards such that the end user does not need to know the username and password--i.e. "Blind Login".

Please note that these are not supported products. The executable and HTML scripts are not required to access the ERC. We are providing them to help you achieve your goal of a "blind login" to the ERC since anyone with a little knowledge of CGI and Javascript could do the same, but we will not be able to port it or enhance it or modify it in any way. Our Customer Service department will not be able to answer any questions regarding the use of the executable and HTML scripts. You will need a web server and a programmer or a NT administrator to make it work.
