I have seen many post on using browstat and I have been unable to get it
working. Maybe it's something I'm doing wrong. I even tried it on Windows
2000. The only way I was able to get it working on Windows 2000 was
installing the Support Tools available on the CD-ROM. The same thing happens
on Windows XP. However, I have heard browstat was a stand alone program and
nothing needs to be installed so it should work, right?

The browstat program is saved in the following directory in Windows.

C:\browstat\browstat.exe

Then I try clicking Start -> Run -> CMD and in the command window when I try
to run it from the command prompt I get the following:

C:\Documents and Settings\user>browstat status

'browstat is not recongized as a internal command or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\user>

BTW, I have no network problems. I just want to be able to use this handy
utility.

Sam,

When you download browstat, you have to know into what folder you copy it.

If C:\browstat is a Path member, you run browstat as "browstat status".

If C:\browstat is not a member of the Path, you run browstat as
"C:\browstat\browstat status".
