On 2000/03/03 Microsoft released a 19.7MB installation guide for Exchange 2000.
Incredibly the package was made up of 1.7 megs of documents - and 18 megs of Netscape 4.7.

To make matters more embarrassing for Microsoft, it was discoverd that the 18 megs was in fact a 128-bit secure version of NS, which is bound by tight US government export restrictions. Still it's nice to know what software Microsoft use in house.

The package was released at:
