code fragment _delis

[Don Phillipson]

Does anyone know what Windows code fragment
_delis
is supposed to do? It may belong to OE (v.6.00.2800.1123)
or perhaps Winfax v.8 (just reinstalled, not yet patched/updated)
was associated with an odd system hang (revealed by Ctl Alt Del
but would not unload on command) then total system hang
("Cannot write to C: when nothing was supposed to be writing to C.)

_delis errors result from an InstallShield installation. Not sure what it
does, always thought of it as a cleanup routine (DEL installation files),
and I'm probably wrong. In any case, the above gives the most obvious
solution: Disable AV before installing. Recommend you uninstall WinFax and
try again.
