The SHELL32 import library in this folder is from NT 4.0 (1381). This is used to link retail versions, since it has lego info in it. SHELL32.W95 is the private import library from Win95. Link to this for debug versions to verify the component will load on browser-only Win95 or NT platforms. These are for the use of components like shdocvw, which must be able to run in browser-only mode. This assures we don't accidentally link to a more recent version of shell32 (the one in public\sdk\lib). Refer the accompanying def files (shelldef.nt and shelldef.w95) to see what exports are available on those platforms. USER32P.NT4: This is actually taken from NT 1528, but it has the right exports needed for desknt4.cpl. The exports changed in the real user32p.lib, so we need this to link to.
