It was version 2.00 of MSD, and the "leave me alone" message appears when you bring up the "About..." screen and hit F1. Later versions seem to have this removed. There are hidden messages in Windows 3.1, too. From the Program Manager, hold and keep holding CTRL-SHIFT, and select About. Double click on one of the panes of the Windows logo, and select OK. Go back into the About screen again, and double click the same pane again. You'll see one secret message. Select OK, and go back into the About screen again. Double clicking on the same pane again gets you a list of credits. Remember to keep holding CTRL-SHIFT the whole time. -- / "This is our third date, Liz.
