   ValuPack, which contains additional value-added components, such as:
   Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0, sounds, additional drivers, Microsoft
   Personal Web Server, the Office Upgrade Wizard, and Microsoft Camcorder.

This information is incorrect.

MORE INFORMATION

The Microsoft Access 97 ValuPack does not contain Microsoft Personal Web Server. However, you can download the Microsoft Personal Web Server for Windows 95 free (other than the cost of connect time, if applicable) from the following Microsoft Web site:
