Whenever part of the filesystem is changed, or possibly changed,
the defrag utility restarts, so it doesn't miss anything. You can sit
there forever doing that.
I wouldn't bother with anything other than the norton utilities. It isn't
that much, and has the wonderful advantage of being able to defrag
the swap file, a huge win, and in fact makes win95/98 more stable.
Do that, and you'll be much happier.
