Subject: OT: SETVER equivalent for Windoze?

This is a bit off-topic, but I was wondering if there was a way to
fake the version that Windoze 9X reports to applications, at bit
like what SETVER did for DOS?

M$ seems to be deliberately preventing installation of stuff like
the newer versions Windoze Media Player on Windoze 95 (to
force people to upgrade;-), but I doubt there is a legitimate
reason for them doing so ...

TIA,
Joe.
