Anyone know where I can get an Instant Sheller or similar tools for W2K? Everything seems to be for XP and they are different enough that it matters.

Only problem it worked almost too well as now when I escape from Mamewah I cant go into windows I thought I had set it all up with the mamewah ini file being altered to avoid whats now happened but guess not. Can you help with the following.
1. Can I get my computer to go into windows once iv finished playing with mamewah?
2. Can I remove the cursor icon that loads up for a few seconds prior to Mamewah starting
3. Once task 2 is done will the cursor be visible for windows applications if not is there a way it can be?
Thanks for your help so far guys it looks like im about there with this one just a few minor problems that can be rectified (I hope)

to get into explorer after exiting your shell program (frontend) ctrl-alt-del to get into task manager then select start a new task and type "explorer" (without the quotes)
