1.0  Overview
______________________________________________________________________

     1.1  About This Program: 
     
          IBM Director Support Tools is a bundle of utilites which aid 
          in the administration of IBM Director.
          
     1.2  Tools Included:
          
          1.2.1  DirClean 1.0.1
                 
                 DirClean is a utility that assists with the 
                 uninstallation of IBM Director by removing registry 
                 data and files left behind by the Director 
                 uninstaller. Dirclean performs two associated 
                 actions. The first option removes all IBM Director 
                 Data on the target system, regardless of the
                 uninstallation state. The second removes the legacy 
                 SMBUS driver (I2C) but leaves the Director 
                 installation intact.
