Then I guess the easiest way is that I remove the 'supports 95/NT'
string because I expect at least an average PC system. And this means
at least ME and a recent Explorer version.

I see your point but the requirement is over 8 years old. And If somebody
uses such an old system, I would call this an exception and not ordinary.

As I said, it's propably the best to remove 95/NT.
I agree that it is annoying for people with older systems that it won't
work, but 4.32 is pretty old and I don't think I really need to mention it.
When WinPT would depend on the XP version of the DLL, it's worth to mention
because XP is pretty new compared to 98. I will either remove 95/NT or I
will put a notice there that some OS components need to be refreshed.
