It's an NT vs 95/98 issue. The limit is 20 on Win95/98; there's no limit
on NT/2K (or if there is, it's very high, well over 1000). I don't know
if there's any way to change the limit on 95/98 (I have a vague
recollection of there being something you can put in AUTOEXEC.BAT to
change the limit, but I can't remember the details).
