OpenEV_FW_1.4.2

[jlawheadus]

Good news - a duplicate 'ncsutil.dll' was to blame in my system32 
directory as Frank predicted. I forgot I had some other ERMapper 
software installed. I renamed the dll in the system32 dir temporarily 
and that did the trick.

And the 1.4.3 version works great. I've been playing with it and 
haven't run into any trouble yet on Win2k.

Thanks everyone.
