Shareware Solutions II's disk library catalog can be viewed
online.  http://www.crl.com/~joko Shareware Solutions II.
That gets you to the main web page.  Then you click on a
link to load a large text file containing the names and
descriptions of all the disk.  Let Netscape finish loading
and then use the Find function to find the string
"HyperCard Player" (I think, or look for each instance of
HyperCard, since it could be a variation like HyperCard
GS Player or something, and you'll find it).  It is in the
disk library too.

I might be confusing Big Red Computer Club's catalog
with PDE's which would make sense since Joe was the
former librarian of BRCC.

As for the Finder info, the Out of this World demo that's
in the Golden Orchard CD-ROM is the same size as
the real program and the icons are the same.  That
doesn't mean that Golden Orchard has an illegal copy
of OOTW.
