Version 6.3.2j

This version requires the standard Hornet 5000i Security Key fitted to the PC in order to operate (the security keys are clearly labelled).

Version 6.4.2j

This version requires the newer Hornet Windmill Security Key fitted to the PC in order to operate and hence this version allows a user to operate both Hornet 5000i and Hornet Windmill systems on the same PC under a single key. Users registered under a current Support Scheme Contract may request an update to this release as part of an upgrade to Hornet Windmill. (Apr '96)
