 The default via Internet Setup Wizzo seems to have it set for "Enable
Software Compression" (Win95 all versions), yet I have heard that on some
modems it is not desirable.  Win98 users we walk back thru "Connect Wizard"
and does still set for Enable Software Compression as the default.  I Don't
have a list of modems that are better off with that setting check'd off
rather than enabled.
